FC Barcelona attacker Raphinha knows the recent history between his club and Bayern Munich, but does not want to make Wednesday’s Champions League match to be about retribution.
“I don’t see it as revenge. What happened, happened. It’s a pity what happened in the last few games against Bayern, but we are focused on this game. We are preparing to get the three points,” Raphinha said (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
Of course, the results from previous years are still likely burning away at some of the Barca players. Consider the results from the 2019/20 season forward:
- 2019/20: FC Barcelona 2-8 Bayern Munich
- 2021/22: Bayern Munich 3-0 FC Barcelona
- 2021/22: FC Barcelona 0-3 Bayern Munich
- 2022/23: Bayern Munich 2-0 FC Barcelona
- 2022/23: FC Barcelona 0-3 Bayern Munich
It has not exactly been smooth sailing (to say the least) for the Catalans.
