Manchester United, Benfica, Real Madrid and Manchester City were previously defeated in the Youth League. FC Barcelona managed to beat Michael van Zijtveld’s team in Nyon, Switzerland. The only goal of the evening was made early in the first half by using FC Barcelona by using a penalty. AZ set up in particular in the second half, but that did not yield any goals.
