Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal has expressed confidence that his team can win the Champions League this season. His statement comes after Liverpool’s elimination from the tournament.

Liverpool had won the first leg of their round-of-16 match against Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in France. However, they lost 1-0 at Anfield in the second leg. The match went to a penalty shootout, where PSG secured their place in the next round.

Meanwhile, Barcelona advanced to the quarter-finals after defeating Benfica over two legs. They are now set to face Borussia Dortmund in the next round.

Yamal believes that Barcelona is now one of the strongest teams left in the competition.

“We are favorites to win the Champions League now that Liverpool are out,” Yamal told SPORT.

He added that Barcelona is not afraid of any team and has improved compared to last year when they played PSG.

With this confidence and determination, Barcelona fans will be hoping their team can lift the trophy this season.
