00:00After an epic 4-5 win against Benfica, Barcelona has secured a spot in the Champions League
00:06Round of 16 with a dream financial reward.
00:10First, for just participating, each of the 36 teams receives $20.1M. Then add the $2.3M
00:18per win that the UEFA distributes, and with 6 victories, that's an extra $14M.
00:24But the cash doesn't stop there. By reaching the Round of 16, they've already secured $12M
00:30plus $2.2M for being among the top 16. That's a total of $48M just from their performance.
00:38And that's not all. If they finish second in the group, another $10.4M will land in
00:44their pocket.
00:45From there, it all depends on Barcelona's performance in the knockout stage. If they
00:49keep winning and make it to the quarterfinals, they'll earn an additional $13.7M. Reaching
00:56the semifinals will bring in $16.4M, and if they reach the final, another $19.7M.
01:05But that's still to be seen. For now, the Blaugrana are heading to the Champions League
01:09Round of 16 with $58M in the bank, a much-needed boost given the club's current financial situation.
