    Assalamualaikum Wr. Wb.. What's up, What's down

Luis Enrique's side just managed to outlast Madrid pair Atletico and Real to defend their title in La Liga and it was another feat of endurance to see off Sevilla at the Vicente Calderon.

The Andalusian side could not replicate their second-half majesty of Wednesday's 3-1 Europa League final success against Liverpool, despite enjoying much of the play.

Javier Mascherano's first-half dismissal and Luis Suarez's withdrawal with a hamstring injury kept Barca pegged back throughout, but Ever Banega's dismissal in second-half stoppage time turned the tables.

Messi had been subdued throughout, but it was the Argentina star's inch-perfect pass that put Jordi Alba through to score in the 97th minute.

After Daniel Carrico saw red to add to the feisty atmosphere, Messi again hit top gear to set up Neymar's clincher, sealing a 28th Copa del Rey for Barca, whose Champions League quarter-final exit at the hands of Atletico stands as the only major blot on another stunning season.

Andres Iniesta turned in a true captain's performance of craft and guile throughout, and his superb scooped pass gave Suarez the first chance, but he smashed wide.

Sevilla's midweek hero Coke slashed wide after Vitolo presented him with a good chance, but the Andalusian fans were raucous after Mascherano received his marching orders after hauling down Kevin Gameiro on the edge of the box with the Frenchman clean through on goal.  

Banega curled the subsequent free-kick over the wall and toward the top corner, but Marc-Andre ter Stegen showed his class with a superb save to tip the ball over the bar.  

Gerard Pique nearly handed Barcelona the lead in the dying minutes of the first half, beating his marker to Ivan Rakitic's corner from the left, only to thump his header inches over.

The game was Sevilla's to lose following Mascherano's dismissal and Banega hit the post after a flowing move as they turned up the heat and Suarez's enforced substitution due to a hamstring injury appeared to leave Barca's chances crumbling.



Rafinha's introduction for the Uruguayan helped the Catalans control midfield better, but only a last-ditch block from Sergio Busquets prevented Grzegorz Krychowiak from opening the scoring from a corner.

Neither side could find the breakthrough, but momentum titled in Barcelona's favour in stoppage time as Sevilla were reduced to 10 men after Banega brought down Neymar just outside the area and Sergio Rico had to save from Messi and Jeremy Mathieu to force extra time.

However, Rico was left helpless as Alba raced onto Messi's pinpoint chipped pass over the defence and coolly slotted home.

Carrico was booked for a rough tackle on Messi, and his protestations earned another immediate yellow card, before Neymar sparked Barca's celebrations in earnest as he prodded home after more Messi magnificence..

That's it the Match report that I take from some source.. Thank you el jugador.. We won 2 titles, Barcelonistas..

FC BARCELONA HISTORY

     Assalamualaikum Wr. Wb. What's up, What's Down..
Hello Barcelonistas Indonesia .. In this first post, I'll describe a piece of the history of our beloved club.

On November 29, 1899, Hans Gamper founded Futbol Club Barcelona, ​​along with eleven other enthusiasts 'foot-ball', a game that is still unknown at the world.He could never have imagined the magnitude of what that initiative would eventually develop into. For more than a hundred years of history, FC Barcelona has grown spectacularly in every area and has progressed into something much greater than a mere sports club, turning Barça's 'more than a club' slogan into a reality.

Barça has become, for millions of people around the world, a symbol of their identity, and not just in a sporting sense, but also in terms of society, politics and culture. Throughout the most difficult of times, Barça was the standard that represented Catalonia and the Catalan people desire for freedom, a symbolism that has continued closely associated with the privileges of the Club and its members to this day. In the context of Spain, Barça is seen as an open and democratic club. And around the world, Barça is identified with caring causes, and especially children through sponsorship agreement with Unicef.
For a whole century, FC Barcelona has passed through moments of glory and pain, periods of brilliance and other less successful ones, epic victories and humbling kekalahan.Tapi all the different moments have helped define the personality of a Club that, due to its strange, is considered unique in this world.

With more than a hundred years of history, there are naturally many different periods, both in terms of social and sports. In the early years (1899-1922), from the bottom of the club to the construction of Les Corts stadium, Barça is a club that had to distinguish itself from all the other football teams in Barcelona, ​​to the point that will come to be identified with the city as a whole. Barça soon became the leading club in Catalonia, and also associated itself with the increasingly growing sense of Catalan national identity.
peiode. Its membership reached 10,000 for the first time, while football developed into a mass phenomenon and turned professional, and these were the years of legendary figures like Alcantara and Samitier.Namun due to material difficulties and the political problems of the Spanish Civil War and post-war period, the club was forced to overcome adverse circumstances, including the assassination of president Josep Sunyol in 1936, people were very which has propagated the slogan 'sport and citizenship'. But the club survived, and a period of social and sporting recovery is realized in the form of the Camp Nou, coinciding with the arrival of a very influential Ladislau Kubala.

development Nou Camp for the anniversary of 75 (1957-1974), Barça suffered mediocre results but consolidated as an entity, with a constantly increasing membership and the slow but steady recovery, in the face of adversity, of its identity. What is clear sensation highly expressed for the first time in the words 'Barça, more than a club' proclaimed by president Narcis de Carreras. Board chaired by Agusti Montal brought a player of Barcelona that will change the history of the club, Johan Cruyff.

the club saw the conversion of football clubs to democracy, beginning Núñez length president Lluís Josep, the extension of the Camp Nou on occasion of the 1982 World Cup and the Cup Winners Cup triumph in Basel (1979), a great success not only in a sporting sense but also in a social one, with and the example of a great expedition to Europe Barca supporters show unity Barcelona and Catalan flags. Cruyff returned, this time as coach, and created what became known as the 'Dream Team' (1990-1994), whose crowning glory was the conquest of the European Cup at Wembley (1992), which is famous thanks to Koeman's goal.

From Wembley to Abu Dhabi (1992-2009) was when the club's most recent developments among the three greatest achievements, becoming champions of Europe. Josep Lluís Núñez's long presidency came to an end, and the club displayed the best potential during the celebrations of the club Centenary. Following on from Joan Gaspart (2000-2003), the June 2003 election brought Joan Laporta into office, and the start of new social expansion, reaching 172,938 members, and more successes on the pitch, including four league titles, the Champions League and won the title in Paris Rome and the FIFA Club World Cup.

In the 2008-09 season the arrival of Josep Guardiola as first team coach brought new energy to the club and they recorded the most successful season in their entire history to win six titles that will be forever burned into the memories of all the Barca fans. Success on the field has helped the club expand its social role and raise the profile of the medium. In the 2009/10 season, Guardiola's second in charge, won the League title for the second year in a row, and the twentieth on club history, setting a new record of 99 points in the process. This title is not decided until the very last day, with a game against Valladolid, and the celebrations in front of the same walk that night in the company of fans at the Nou Camp.

The grandeur of Futbol Club Barcelona is explained, among many other factors, with an impressive list of awards. Very few clubs anywhere in the world have won so many titles. The Intercontinental Cup is the only major trophy football that has never made its way into the club museum, where the club's greatest pride and joy remain the three European Cup titles won at Wembley (1992) Paris (2006), Rome (2009) and the FIFA Club World Cup 2009.

In addition to the title's win over Europe ,, Club also has the honor of being the only one has appeared in every single edition of European club competition since the tournaments were first created in 1955 in Barcelona many achievements include being European, having won that title a record four times
In addition, FC Barcelona also won three Fairs Cups (the tournament now known as the UEFA Cup) in 1958, 1960 and 1966. In 1971, Barca won the trophy directly in a game played between them, as the first winner of the competition, and Leeds United, as the last.
