  • Umtiti in goal: not an experiment Barcelona will try any time soon.

    Samuel Umtiti’s audition to be an emergency goalkeeper for Barcelona didn’t go too well.

    The Frenchman was in goal for a short spell during training ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League clash against Chelsea, and left-back Jordi Alba decided to put the centre-back to the test.

    In fairness to Umtiti, Alba’s shot was well-struck, but his own half-hearted attempt in goal was nowhere near enough to keep the shot out.

    Marc-Andre ter Stegen and Jasper Cillessen won’t be too worried, at this rate.

    Have a look at the goal in the video below.
