Champions League
The absence of Lewandowski? It’s a pity for the fans, they would definitely like to see him in Pilsen, said Bílek
Viktoria Plzeň have their final match ahead of them. They host Barcelona at home and the goal will be to get the first point and a positive farewell to the group of death, from which it was basically impossible to advance to the spring part. What did coach Michal Bílek say at the press conference?

The last match of the group stage is ahead of Viktoria Plzeň, who host Barcelona at home. The latter will arrive in the west of Bohemia without several mainstays, which increases the chances of scoring points.
“I expect a very difficult and complicated match because the quality of Barcelona is huge. It is thelast game in the group and we will do our best to make the result acceptable for us,” Michal Bílek said at the press conference.
He could not be satisfied with the performance of his charges in the Champions League, although probably nobody could have expected different results. Barcelona coach Xavi is certainly not satisfied, as the Europa League awaits them in the spring.
“The opponent will be missing some players, but even so it will not be weaker. They have quality in all positions,” added the Plzen coach. One of them will be playmaker Robert Lewandowski.
“Even though he is an exceptional player with tremendous quality, I don’t think Barcelona will be weaker. If you look at all their names, it’s incredibly loaded. But I definitely think it’s a shame for the fans, they would have 100% wanted to see him in Plzen,” he admitted.
Will Viktoria manage to turn around a formerly one of the best teams in the world for points and improve their tarnished reputation in European cup competitions?
