After the ballon d'Or [2]

(UEFA Champions League:)

(Matchday 4 of 8:)

(Dynamo Kyiv – FC Barcelona)

(Date: 6th November, 2025)

After the 8-0 drubbing of Espanyol at the Spotify Camp Nou, just 3 days later, Barca got a UEFA champions league date with Dynamo Kyiv in Ukraine.

Like expected, Sam made the FC Barcelona squad for the game.

There was no change to Hansi Flick's starting XI for this game.

As for the home side though, the Ukraine club started with their most formidable lineup against the visiting Catalan giants.

Starting in their customary 4-3-3 formation, Neshcheret started in between the posts for the Ukrainian club. Starting ahead of him was a quadruple defense of Tymchyk, Popov, Mykhavko, and Vivcharenko.

In midfield was a trio of Buyalskyi, Mykhaylenko, and Pikhalyonok.

And then in attack was the attacking trio of Yarmokenko, Vanat, and Kabayev, forming a dangerous Dynamo Kyiv side.
