The Catalans defeated GOG again in the second leg at the Palau and Polish Kielce passed over Veszprém
The draw for the Final Four in Cologne will take place on Tuesday 23 at 12 in the morning and there will be no conditions
Barça has fulfilled the forecasts this Thursday to access the Final Four of the Champions League through the front door once again in which they will have as rivals the French Paris Saint – Germain, the German SC Magdeburg and the Polish Barlinek Industria Kielce.
The team led by Carlos Ortega received the GOG in the quarterfinal second leg with seven goals from rent after the 30-37 first leg on Danish soil and He has not suffered at any time to defeat the Scandinavians again (36-31) despite the fact that they have attacked with seven almost the entire game.
The coach from Malaga has therefore achieved his second classification for the Final Four in his second campaign on the bench and now he will fight to retain the title after winning a total of six during his time as a Barça player.
The other tie that concluded this Thursday looked exciting after the 29-29 that the Polish Barlinek Industria Kielce started on the track of the Hungarian Telekom Veszprémbut the truth is that there has been no history and the Poles were already winning at halftime 18-12.
Kielce is the current runner-up in the Champions League

A goal from Ciudad Real Sánchez-Migallón made it 27-19 with 12 minutes remaining and gave way to a huge party with the team led by the Spanish-Kyrgyz Talant Dujshebaev as the protagonist and with his eldest son Álex, author of six goals. Who was going to say it when the Frenchman Nedim Remili left Kielce halfway through the season bound for Veszprém and it seemed that everything was over in the ‘yellows’ after his sponsor withdrew? Sports stuff.
Thus, Barça and Kielce completed the Final Four draw that will be played in the traditional setting of the Lanxess Arena in Cologne on June 17 and 18 with Barça as the favorite after their great competition and perhaps with Raúl González’s PSG as ‘cover’. And be careful, because between the giant Dainis Kristopans and the ‘brain’ Luc Steins they are playing really well, especially in attack after their resounding failure in the French Cup against Montpellier.

The draw for the semifinals will take place this Tuesday at 12:00 p.m. and there will be no condition, so that those of Carlos Ortega could correspond to any rival and in each case there would be morbidity.
Barça beat Kielce on penalties in the last Champions League final, lost the last two Super Globe finals against Magdeburg and ex-azulgranas David Balaguer, Petar Nenadic and Kamil Syprzak are active in PSG plus the injured star Nikola Karabatic.
