Barça 40-28 Meshkov Brest: To the Final Four!

Barça overcame Meshkov Brest to qualify for their ninth Final Four in 12 seasons.

Two quick transitions completed by Aleix Gómez made it 2-0, though Meshkov Brest, in the early exchanges, offered some resistance to keep the scoreline initially equal.

However, Barça soon set a spectacular pace and, thanks to some great counterattacks, they were 21-13 up by half-time with almost every player scoring, including keeper, Pérez de Vargas.

Dominance

The Belarusian team weren't able to deal with Barça's dominance, the 874 spectators present at the Palau Blaugrana enjoying every moment. More so when qualification for the Final4 was assured.

Barça remain unbeaten in the current edition of the EHF Champions League, with the Final Four to come in Cologne.
