Henry surprised after Barcelona upset

Barcelona's dramatic 5-4 win over Benfica left Thierry Henry speechless. Raphinha's goal sparked a brawl and controversy on the pitch and after the match, as it was (possibly) influenced by a foul. An incredible scene unfolded in the studio of CBS's Champions League show Golazo. Carragher raised his hands, took off his glasses and moved excitedly in his seat. Richards experienced the moment with equal passion, falling on the table and even losing a button from his shirt sleeve. Even the moderator, Kate Abdo, was not left behind, being carried away by the enthusiasm.

But the former French striker remains unchanged, with a cold and surprising reaction: he is like a statue, his face shows no emotion. Holding onto the sheets, with clenched hands, he seems at a loss for words. What happened to him and why this attitude? Henry played for Barcelona for three years (2007-2010), but he does not give any sign of emotion.

Only later does he find his voice and give a cold and critical analysis of Barcelona's performance. He steps into the role of the Catalan team's coach, Hansi Flick, and his comments are not at all pleasant for the Spanish fans. "When you are a coach and you go back to the locker room after the game, you are not that happy about what happened," Henry explained.

"A situation like this is certainly extraordinary and exciting, but many goals came from mistakes. Would I say it was a great match? No, because the great one was Atlético Madrid–Leverkusen (it ended 2-1 for the colchoneros after a turnover)."

The former world champion's analysis continues and touches on many aspects of the game that cannot be overlooked. He looks at the negative sides, the mistakes that could have cost him dearly, the many insecurities in defense, even the ridiculous ones. Henry speaks as an expert on the field and not as a fan.

"When you look at the result, you almost don't want to analyse the goals. You can only talk about what was done well and what wasn't," he added, criticising in particular the numerous mistakes in defence and those of goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny.

"Recently, you conceded four goals and some of them were avoidable. Yes, you came back into the game, but you should never have been in that situation. You won, but it's not normal to concede so many goals like that. The Benfica coach also made a big mistake, because to be 4-2 up and lose 5-4 is unacceptable."
