Apart from Arsenal, who play with 10 men, after Robin van Persie receives the red card in minute 56, Barca is already showing its dominance since the first round. The hosts do not provide any opportunity to his opponent.
Barca successfully incised eight shots during the first round, where four of them on target. Arsenal they made not to open fire even once. They managed to score one goal in the first half was through Lionel Messi.
After the second round was over, Barca carrying off 17 shots with 10 of them on target. Meanwhile, Arsenal, still they let off one shot was nil!
Difference in control of the ball was quite large. Barca win percentage of 74:26. All entries were judged sufficient to make a more decent Barca cruised into the quarterfinals.
With these records, you could say defense Los Cules also relatively solid. Though they played with four defenders are not uncommon. No Carles Puyol (which is still injury) and Gerrard Pique (yellow card penalties) appears as a doorstop.
Instead, it appeared, accompanied by defender Eric Abidal was impromptu: Sergio Busquets. The only error is when Busquets conduct an own goal in this match.
