Barca manager Hansi Flick has disclosed that the team won’t change their attacking style of football against Newcastle United in tonight’s first leg of the Champions League Round of 16 at St. James’ Park.
It will be the second time the clubs have met on Tyneside this season, with Barca winning 2-1 courtesy of Marcus Rashford’s double in the first game of the group phase in September.
Flick in a press conference warned Barcelona that Newcastle pose a serious threat to their Champions League ambitions as a product of “the best league in the world”.

“The Premier League is a great league – for me, it’s the best league in the world, and they have strong teams.
“Of course, they have also a lot of money to make the right decisions, hopefully, but they have done it because they are, how many, six teams now in the next round?
“We have to continue our way, our style, how we want to play. This is our philosophy.
“We want to play like Barca also here in the Champions League because our supporters are proud of us and the way we play football, so this is what we want to show also today.”
