Barcelona headed to the measures knowing that a positive result was necessary, after drawing 1-1 in Germany this day last week.

Eintracht Frankfurt Led at Camp Nou! 🚨
Eric Garcia takes a dirty kick for giving Philip Kostic a penalty kick, and he sure buries it! 💪

In the back of their team’s nightmare that began on Thursday night, it should come as no surprise to hear about the aforementioned Garcia being heavily criticized by Barcelona supporters.
Turning to Twitter in droves, Blaugrana supporters were not shy about targeting the free summer agent’s access to the club in a cruel way, with many going so far as to describe the Spain international as a complete and absolute “responsibility”. :
Said it from the start, Eric Garcia is a responsibility.

Eric Garcia is only good at taking penalty kicks. An absolute joke for the player, he is not even fit to play for a club in the Spanish League
