Barcelona star Lamina Yamal believes his side are now the favorites to win the Champions League after Liverpool’s release.
The Red Paris Saint-Germain kicked out to penalties, leaving one smaller diva in the competition.
In the meantime, Barca has overcome Benfica in the last 16 years and will face the German side color Borussia Dortmund in the quarterfinals.
It is important that the Yamal’s side is on the opposite side of the PSG draw -in the Real Madrid rivals.
But they could still come across Bayern from Munich or Inter Milan on the way to the finals.
Talking about international duties with Spanish, Yamal said SPORT: “We are the favorites for the Champions League.

“When the group stage was over, I said that Liverpool were favorites because they were first, and now that they fell, that’s us.”
The dynamic wing player continues that the team has no fear of any opponent and emphasizes their “strong mentality” as they prepare for the most critical part of the season.
Barcelona remains in the quarrel of the three main titles: Champions League; Laliga, where they are currently holding first place with playing in their hand; and Copa del Rey, where they are ready to face Atletico Madrid in the second part of the semifinals.
“We are a different team than last year, when we lost to PSG,” said Barca no.
In Spain, no side scored nowhere near Barca’s 75 goals, and only two sides acknowledged less than their 27.
But it’s been 10 years since the club last raised the Champions League, in Lionel Messi.
Now, Yamal is looking for his mark as the next legend of the club, and the 17-year-old has already proven his value since he broke from La Masia on stage.
If he can take Barca to a prestigious trophy, he will become a hero.
