The key coach of Barcelona Ernesto Valverde got rid of the fight of his own team in front of the goal later such as they were drawn 0-0 in Lyon in the first match of their own Champions League on Tuesday.

The Spanish side had a huge shot at the Groupama stadium, with Luis Suarez shooting elementary extensively in the second half, but it was Lyon who came close when Martin Terrier slammed the bar early.

Lionel Messi and co. were in another one survived frustrated on the roadway at the business end of the competition, and have now been held 6 away matches without winning the Champions League playoffs, scoring just once a goal during this time. This is a run that lasts 3 years.

Desperate to put a lid on the recent European dominance of real Madrid, Barca is now obliged to finish the job when the teams meet again at camp Nou on March 13, but Lyon remains in a tie.

Barcelona's configuration is bound to improve between now and then, but - they have drawn 4 of the last 5 matches in all, and scored only once, with a penalty kick, in their own last 3 departures.

"We played good football, but you also have to get into the problem, and we did not do this," said Valverde.

- However, we are on the right track, and the Association is still in the air. We will try to win in front of our fans."

He added: "I'm not happy with the outcome, but I'm happy with the concert and what we did.

"We did not score, but for example it is. In the Champions League, it is not easy to win away from home."

Guests who started with Sergi Roberto in midfield rather than outside of Philippe Coutinho's form had good reasons to fear their own owners , who succeeded in tremendous games in this season.

Bruno Genesio's team took 4 points out of a probable 6 against Manchester city at the massive turn and not so long ago won a home in Paris Saint-Germain in League 1.

They are still invincible in Europe this season, but it was their 6th draw in order.

"This is a good result, due to the fact that we have a chance to return the match, and we have not lost. If we can score in camp Nou, we will have a chance to pass," said Genesio.

He confessed, in fact, that he hoped for even better game, but" Lyon " missed his own captain-the winner of the world Cup Nabil Fekir because of the disqualification here.

It was a 21-year-old Terrier who suddenly started their own space, and he delivered the most interesting moment of the first half for the mass of almost 58 000 people with a thunderous strike from 20 yards in the 9th minute, which was tipped on the bar by Marc-andré Ter Stegen.

The same player then at the end of the mythical move, while Houssem AUAR had previously been denied the goalkeeper, but it is Barcelona who took advantage of longer periods of possession.

Usman Dembele-once of the 2 French in the composition of the guests-came close to them in the first half, but their best chances were seen later such as he was replaced by Coutinho in the middle of the 2 period.

Suarez came within an inch to break the deadlock 20 minutes from time, firing narrowly wide from a reduction of Jordi Alba. He has 16 away matches, not scoring in the competition.

Coutinho had a powerful shot, beaten off by Anthony Lopez, and the goalkeeper of Lyon has disappointed Messi and Sergio Busquets, because Barcelona dominated, but left without a potentially valuable goal.

"It's a bit of a bummer, but 2 match is still ahead, and we trust to arrange better," said lawyer Clement Langlet.

At the last measure, they have extended the personal break-even record against Lyon to 7 matches, but there is still hope for the French club ahead of the return.
