Guillem Balague.

A total natural.

Colin , goal!

Just when you think
you've seen it all!

Over the last few years,

I've been traveling
with CBS all over Europe

looking for stories.

And if you look closely
and with love,

you find lots of characters.

You must be, Guillem.
- That's right.

Already this season,
I've been in Scotland,

in Israel,
in Fashion Week in Milan.

And now halfway
through the Group stage,

I am in London near the offices

of my favorite shirt brand,
Guide London.

Coming here
talking to the bosses,

getting new shirts, is my way

to get ready
for a new adventure.

As match day four approaches.

- Ah, Richard.
- Welcome, Guillem. Come in.

Let's get you a new shirt.

Yes, please. Let's do that.

Richard, this is like walking

to the factory
of Father Christmas.

Meet Isaac, the founder.

This is not a bad thing. Is it?

This is such
a pleasure to be here.

My great-grandfather,
back in the Second World w*r,

he had a clothing shop
and a b*mb

from the German Luftwaffe
fell in his shop,

but it didn't explode.

And back then
if something like that happened,

you got special vouchers
from the government

so you could still get things.

So, he found it really easy
to get hold of clothing.

Now, at the same time,

you had lots of GIs
coming from the States.

And all of these GIs
were in London

and they wanted to go out
for an evening

dancing with the ladies,
but they wanted to look good.

And they found it really
difficult to find clothing.

But my great-grandfather
kitted out

thousands of them back then
because he was able

to get a hold of the clothing.

Everything we do,
it doesn't matter what it is,

it's all about making
you look good and feel good.

That's what we try
to do with everything.

I'm seeing you in the elephants
come this autumn.

I was just gonna say,
look at that.

That's a gingham shirt
if there ever was one.

Yeah.

I want that.

Amazing.
- It's out there.

I'm looking around
and I'm thinking,

"I want everything."

This is the selection
that I've picked out.

You don't have to take them all.

You can take them all
if you want.

It's your choice.
I've tried to make sure

we've got a bit of everything.

Yeah, I think, let me see.

I'm taking them all.

With my wardrobe restored,

it's time
to continue my journey.

This is Naples.

People here love three things:

pizza, Maradona and football.

In that order.

But now they've got
a new king to worship.

His name doesn't roll
off the tongue that easy,

so bear with me.

Khvicha Kvar--

Kav-- Kvarats--

Locals here call him Kvaradona.

All the eyes are on number 77,

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

Great play.
Kvaratskheila goes-- Oh!

This man continues
to be in the headlines.

You are having
an exceptional season.

Do you feel that on the pitch
that you can do anything?

We're gonna talk to your dad,
who was a player as well.

How did he help you in football

or in life to be
what you are now?

Hey, Baldri.

Nice to meet you.
It's Guillem Balague.

Khvicha...

Kvaratskhelia.

Kvara--

Kvarartskheila.

- Kuh-vuh.
- Kuh-vuh.

Kuh-vuh-arats-suh-hey-ill-ah.

- Kvaratskheila.
- Ah, yes.

Close. It's close.

Close?
Are we getting there?

We are getting there.

And how about your mother?

How did she help?

- Ah, hello.
Hello.

You Maka?
Yes.

Khvicha's room?
Yes.

Aha, Khvicha's room.

Always the seven. Always seven.

- Seven. Seven. Seven. Seven.

So, he was growing
up in here in Georgia,

went to Russia
and then came back to Georgia.

Why?

And was there a bit
of pressure for the family

for him to return to Georgia?

Can you show me
your most special shirt?

Why? Why that one?

Dribbling is fine.
Many players can dribble.

But even at that age,
could you see

that he had a strong mentality?

What I'm finding,
talking to Baldri, his dad,

and Maka, his mom,
is a humbleness

that perhaps you don't relate
to that kind of football

and that kind of work
and that kind of dribble.

And that has been
taken on board by Georgia.

They see him
as representing their values.

He's becoming a bit
of a God almost.

Do you feel that
that's what's happening?

Vlad, thank you very much.

- My pleasure.

Right. I've been asked
to appear on Georgian TV.

Yes, I know, but I will do it.

I'm wired up.
I've got two microphones.

I've got a connection
to the translator in my ear.

- Kuh-vah.
- Kuh-vah.

Kuh, Kuh. Kuh-vah.

- Kvarat-- Kvaratskhelia.
- That's a hard one.

- Kvaratskhelia.
- Kvaratskhelia.

- Si.
- Kvaratskhelia.

Kvarats-- Kvaratskhelia.

Okay.

Don't
compare him to Messi.

Don't compare him
to anybody that you know of.

To Maradona. Don't compare him.

Khvicha will be Khvicha.

Selfie, please.

Definitely.

- Thank you so much.
- My pleasure.

I think most of the book--

Having followed
the trail Khvicha Kvaratskhelia

in Tbilisi,
means that I care about him.

He's got three dimensions now.

And today he's
got a massive game.

It's midnight.

We're in a cinema
in downtown, Tbilisi.

So, let's equip
ourselves with stuff

that allows us to enjoy
the evening and support him.

This way.

Welcome to Naples.

Group A leaders Napoli
are looking to wrap up a spot

in the knockout round
with two games to spare.

And that's through
here for Lozano!

What a start for Napoli.

Kvaratskhelia after it.

Options in the middle.

Oh, it's two.

Napoli running riot.

And the ball in is
headed home by Davy Klaassen

and Ajax are on the board.

Penalty.

Kvaratskhelia steps up.

And absolutely
r*fles this one home.

- Oh, it's a penalty

and maybe it's not over yet.

And Bergwijm
brings Ajax back into it.

Oh, Osimhen's in!

What a gift.

Napoli through to the last 16.

And also continuing their 100%
record in the section.

And that's it.

That's the story
of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

I got it, I got it, didn't I?

I think I did.

Hello.

I'm coming to a final.

What, in October?
It absolutely is a final.

This Barcelona Inter.

First of all, Barcelona
could be actually knocked out

of the Champions League
if they don't win.

And the consequences
are massive.

Financially, you know,
Barcelona have had to sell parts

of the club to pay
the debt that they have,

which is a huge,
$1 billion plus.

They get knocked out now,
they lose about $30 million.

Only victory is possible today.

Barcelona, the Nou Camp,

one of the main
stages of European football,

an iconic
Champions League Stadium.

Didn't cross the line.

Raphinha.

Oh, here's Sergi Roberto.

It's in. Dembele.

Barcelona break through.

Arnaldo is flapped again here.

It's Raphinha.

Suddenly Barella
is in here and scores!

Inter Milan on .

Lautaro Martinez
on his own and scores.

Gives Inter Milan
the lead in the Nou Camp.

Balde.

Lewandowski and again, it's in.

For Barcelona.

Inter Milan lead again.

And just look
at the celebration.

Lewandowski.

It's 3-3.

Fantastic.
Champions League at its best.

It felt like a knockout game.

It's a result, Guillem,
that leaves Barcelona

in a difficult position
in the Champions League.

Just how somber
is the mood over there?

As you can imagine,
nobody's happy here, Kate.

Well, hopefully you
still enjoy your evening.

Guillem, good to see you.

All right.

We are done.

Strange because this result,
3-3, feels like a defeat

for Barcelona
and a victory for Inter.

It's in the hands of Inter
to qualify for the next round.

And here.

Well, I can imagine--

I know very well
what happens in Barcelona.

I can imagine fans,
they'll go for the players,

especially the older players,
Busquets, Piqué,

who made mistakes today,

and then the manager,

and then they will
try to burn the house down.

Because for the second
consecutive year,

Barcelona more likely than not

will not be in the group stage
of the Champions League.

12 teams are now

already through
to the round of 16

to the knockout stages
of the Champions League.

And one of those teams that
is through there is Liverpool.

Henderson
into Salah, past the goalie.

One goal for Mo Salah.

This could be 4.

It is. Mehdi Taremi.

Havertz trying from range.

Oh, what a goal.

All three of the superstar
forwards on the target here.

And it's in for Antonio Silva.

What a goal.

A delightful flick
past Szczesny.

Marseille,
the oldest town in France.

The city of 100 neighborhoods.,

You can find Algerian kesra
and slices of pizza.

You can smell the spice
of Arab and Turkish food.

This is a consequence of 2,500
years of migrants coming here.

Merci, ma chérie.

Frank.
- How are you?

Perfect timing.
Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

You've done many
of these all around the town.

Around 10 players,
around the city.

It's for the supporters.

For the guys of Marseille

for they came
and it's like a religious icon

and we can
pray for him, you know.

Because football is a religion.

In Marseille, absolutely.

Marseille
is the home of pétanque.

I had no idea.

Do you know anywhere
around here to play pétanque.

Yeah, I know-
I know a good place.

- Oh, take me there.
- Okay.

- Let's play a bit.
- Come on.

- Bonjour.

Let me ask.

- Salud.

No!

Come on!

Marseille versus Spain.

You're not France. Why is that?

Because it's not
like a French city

where there
are some immigration.

It's immigration
who made the city.

Strangers that
came to Marseille.

- Yeah.
- And Marseille was made

- by strangers.
- Exactly.

3-0. 3-0.

No.

Tell me about
the atmosphere in Velodrome.

What am I going to find?

Well, you will
find like a volcano.

We are too hot for--

- For UEFA.
- For UEFA.

Oh!

It's a good one.

- Frank.
- Well played.

It's been a pleasure. Who won?

- I won, no?
- You won, you won, you won.

I see it like that.

Some European Nights
have a different atmosphere.

This was one of those nights.

The road from the 100
neighborhoods of Marseille

leads here, to the Velodrome,

the home
of Olympique de Marseille.

The Champions League
and the atmosphere

is a two tone style.

Electric. Noisy.

On the night, all four teams
could qualify from Group D.

It is a wide open Group D

and it should make
for a very entertaining final

90 minutes of this group stage.

OM and Spurs.

Marseille a win and they are in,
while Spurs need only a draw.

Mbemba makes it!

A stunning hitter.

What the hell!

And there
is life in OM.

And delivers
a good delivery.

And it's all level!

UÜnder puts it into the back
with a wonderful delivery.

And that's a point hitter!

Into the area is Hojbjerg.

!

And Spurs win the group.

Astonishing.

We'll take it.

Let's take you over

to the other game
from that group,

Sporting against Frankfurt.

So this one also Group D.

This one as well
went back and forth.

And Eintracht from Frankford

have turned
the match on its head.

So, Frankfurt
through in second place.

Let's talk about Group F.

It was basically
between Leipzig and Shakhtar,

who were playing each other
to go through in second.

Szoboszlai
beautifully finished off

and they finished off
the Pitman here.

Giroud. That's 3-0.

Milan have one big foot
in the last 16.

We now know
our teams who are through

to the last 16
in the Champions League.

Top of the group
are on the top line.

Second place
are on that bottom line.

We're going to take
you out to Marseille.

Guillem, how exciting was
that one up close and personal?

Just think of this, right?

In the last minute,
a goal of Marseille

took Spurs out
of the Champions League.

In the last minute
a goal of Spurs

takes Marseille
completely out of Europe.

You nervous about
leaving the stadium tonight?

No, because I'm not
leaving for three hours.
