JAKARTA – Eintracht Frankfurt see their meeting with Barcelona as a golden opportunity. The clash was used by the German club to increase their social media engagement.

Eintracht will host Barcelona in the first leg of the 2021/2022 Europa League quarter-finals at the Deutsche Bank Park Stadium, Germany, Friday, April 8 in the morning WIB. This is the first meeting between the two clubs in European competition.

Die Adler did not want to miss this golden opportunity to face one of the best clubs in the world. The big name of El Barca was also used as an opportunity for them to harvest popularity on social media with uploads related to the potential opponent.

One of Eintracht's latest uploads on Twitter and Instagram can be a representation of that assumption. The post on the one hand praises Barcelona, but on the other hand suggests that they are ready to face a club that so many people admire.

"Hey Barcelona, you are a great club, you are a successful club. Your traditions are unique. Your city is beautiful, your football is always in the spotlight. Everyone knows you. Almost everyone loves you too," Eintracht said in the video as seen on their social media.

In the same video, Eintracht also shows that they are not afraid of being visited by the La Liga giants. Moreover, they have a history of winning the Europa League competition once.

That happened in the 1979/1980 season when Germany was still separate from the West and East blocs. At that time, Eintracht came out as champions after beating Borussia Mönchengladbach in a two-legged match.

"But you know us. You know Eintrach Frankfurt. We also have one trophy (Europa League), we also have legends. Our city is also very beautiful. Okay Barca maybe you have everything. Maybe you are not impressed, but you need to know, there are something you don't have," the video continues.

Eintracht then continued their video by showing their line of hard-line fans packed into the stadium. This seems to want to show Barcelona that they have a "twelfth player" who can influence the course of the game.

However, Barcelona is currently on fire in the domestic competition since Xavi Hernandez was appointed. They even currently managed to poke into the second board of the La Liga standings after previously being outside the top four.

For that we need to wait for the winner of this match!
