He Barcelona fell 2 to 1 against Monaco in his last Champions League match on September 19. However, this was not the worst of their day, since the Catalan club was sanctioned by the UEFA for displaying a banner with a phrase classified as Nazi while the match was being played.

Subsequently, Barça issued an official statement indicating that “it will abide by and apply this sanction in the matchday 4 of the UEFA Champions League that the team will play against Red Star in Belgrade on November 6.”
“FC Barcelona rejects any type of apology for violence and, as stated in articles 3 and 4 of its Statutes, will ensure the protection and promotion of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights,” he added.
In addition, it reported that “it will reinforce current measures and undertake additional actions that are appropriate to prevent these events from being repeated in the future as well as to punish those responsible.”
