Garnacho featured for just eight minutes in the first-leg game at Camp Nou and he got upgraded by Erik ten Hag in 2nd leg. United forward played for 23 minutes at Old Trafford.
The 18-year-old shared an image of himself making a binocular with his hands, the celebration so often used by Barcelona’s Pedri whenever he joins. He hit with the words: “The big team goes through.”
When the Barca star Araujo was asked on Garnacho’s word, he said to Infobae: “Yes. Everyone is as they are, but at that time, it should not have been possible to post something like that.”
“I respect everyone and I feel that humility should be ahead of everything. Everyone expresses themselves as they want, but I prefer to have a lower profile and then show what I do on the pitch.
He also added, “This is football, he is very young and there is still a long way to go. You have to proceed calmly and humbly.”
Barcelona star then admitted he would not remind Garnacho about the post if he faces the United forward again. He said, “No, they are football things that I think of in a different way.”

Colon manager Pipo Gorosito also talked on Garnacho, “You have to show him what is good and bad. He’s going to make mistakes because he’s 18 years old and that’s when he has to do it, it’s part of life.
Pipo Gorosito insisted he would have hit him if he was one of his children. He added, “If he’s one of my children, I hit him with an open hand on the neck. That’s the way it is.”
Alejandro Garnacho will now take part in the FA Cup quarterfinal against Fulham and Ronaldo Araujo will be in action for El Classico at Camp Nou. It would be interesting to see when the duo will face each other in any competitive game. Both teams are doing great in tehir top-flight and take part in the Champions League next season.
