It's not taken Barcelona long to respond to Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp, who said that Camp Nou is 'just a stadium' and that it's not a temple of the game.
The German coach's comments did not go down well ahead of Wednesday's Champions League semifinal between the two clubs.
Barça took to social media on Tuesday and said: "This is Camp Nou. Our home. Our temple. Our fortress."
Along with the phrase, the club shared a video of some important moments of the club's history, featuring Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez. The publication ends with: "Mes que un club."
With just over 24 hours to go until this week's first leg meeting, things are now hotting up.

I think we need to give a lesson to klopp and Liverpool....how can talk such statements which hurt other club's sentiment.....camp nou is the place from where a race ruled by others learned to stand up and put their head straight up...this is the place from where we learned to dream with Johan cryuff and soul and legacy of that great man is still alive at every piece of grass in it....If it is not a temple then what is??? I don't talk anything bad about anfield because I know many Liverpool supporters have their emotions attached with it and we don't want to hurt it.... We are BARCA....we colour football

Messi started talking much before the game has played. Respect your opponent first. Don't think you're the king of football. There are hidden tallents. You might see them at Camp Nou. What luck aren't Ronaldo. Why the hell youre like a mouse in Argentina

It's Our stadium is a temple to us if not for u, it our home, where we have much confidence where the away teams suffer. if ur stadium is not a temple to u, ours is a temple to us. Yours is not a temple because u don't have the god of football but we have

Best game of the season definitely. Going to be a tight affair, on goal difference or one goal. I think barca will win the first leg and Liverpool the second one. The scoreline will see who goes through. Best of luck to both teams.
