Barcelona suffered yet another disappointing European night as the Catalan side lost 3-2 to Eintracht Frankfurt and were knocked out of the Europa League.

The visitors picked up where they left off in the first leg and were better than Barcelona on the night. They jumped out to an early lead and never looked back.

Barcelona were stymied throughout both matches and were unable to connect on a number of facets. They did manage to score twice in added time to make the loss respectable but it was a loss nonetheless.

Once again, a German team proved to be their undoing and it was another reality check as to where this Barcelona team is at the moment. While they have vastly improved since Xavi Hernandez took over, they are still a work in progress and the deficiencies evident in Europe under previous managers remain.
