FC Barcelona have imploded after going down a man, especially in the second half. Paris Saint-Germain scored three goals in the second half to overturn the aggregate situation, but lost in the chaos was manager Xavi Hernandez being sent off.
The Spanish manager’s adjustments to being down a man haven’t worked, and his anger or frustration boiled over. After displaying his emotions, the referee gave Xavi a red card, and he’s now watching the end of the match in the dressing room.
