Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I te Etihad Stadium i te marama kua hipa, ko tetahi o nga kaitakaro tino pukenga o tana whakatupuranga i whakawhiwhia ki te waahi o te waahi i te wikitoria 2-1 a Barcelona. He whakaaturanga mai i te tino pai. I mau a Andres Iniesta i nga paanga 112 i waenga o Barcelona, e rima neke atu i tana hoa kapa rongonui a Lionel Messi me te nuinga atu i tetahi kaitakaro i te koti o Manchester City. Ko James Milner, i whakawahihia e Manuel Pellegrini hei tetahi o nga kaitakaro nui o tana kapa, ko ia te mea nui rawa atu me te 64. Kāore ngā tau e ōrite ana, koinei tētahi o ngā take e uaua ana te whutupaoro Ingarihi ki te whai pānga i ngā whakataetae e rua i te Champions League. Ahea ka ako ai tō mātou kēmu? Kāore pea. Ko Andres Iniesta, i okioki i te wikitoria a Barca ki a Eibar, e tika ana kia hoki mai ki te timatanga o te City. Ko te kaitakawaenga Croatia o Barcelona a Ivan Rakitic e whakahaere ana i te poi i te wa e tiro ana a Xavi me Pedro i te whakangungu. I whai a Neymar i tētahi whiu hoa ki te hoa whakaeke o Barcelona a Luis Suarez i muri i te hinganga o te Uruguayan. He nui te wairua o te rangatira o Brazil i te wā e whakarite ana a Barcelona mō tā rātau whakataetae Champions League whakamutunga 16. "Kei te tākaro mātou i tētahi āhuatanga whānui, ā, e hiahia ana mātou kia mamae rātou", i whakaae a Iniesta i a ia e whakarite ana ki te tiki atu i ngā kākahu whero me te puru o Barcelona. <unk> Me kimi e tātou ā tātou pūkenga pai ake, me whakaiti i ō rātou pūmanawa. E hiahia ana mātou ki te whakahaere i ngā mea e tupu ana i ia wā. Me patu e mātou a Manchester City mā te mahi tino pai. Kua whakaritea a Barcelona ki te tākaro i tētahi ara, e hāngai ana katoa ana ki te pupuri i te pōro, ā, e pupuri ana i te pōro kia kitea ra ano e rātau he ara mā roto i ngā ārai o te taone. He pononga a Iniesta ki te kēmu, he tangata e rapu tonu ana i te tino pai ahakoa i muri i nga wikitoria e toru i te Champions League, me nga whakataetae Pakeha e rua me te 2010 World Cup, i reira i eke ai ia ki te toa mo Spain. E tūmanako ana a Barcelona kia eke ki ngā hauwhā o te Champions League mā te whakawātea i a Manchester City. Kaore a Barca i ngaro i te eke ki te waru whakamutunga o Uropi mai i te 2007, a ka kite i te taone nui i taua waahanga ano i te tau kua hipa. Ko tōna...
Ka whakangungu a Barcelona i mua i te tukinga tuarua o te 16 whakamutunga i te Nou Camp. I ārahi te kapa Paniora i a City 2-1 i muri i te tukinga tuatahi, i te wā i eke ai a Luis Suarez kia rua ngā piro. E kī ana a Andres Iniesta kāore i mutu te taupatupatu, ā, e mea ana kei te tino arotahi a Barcelona.
