• Article is well written, especially in the list details.
• The following sentences in the lead paragraph has got to be cited per WP:Lead.

The club was created in 1899, and have participated in regional and domestic competitions since 1901, and in international competitions since the Pyrenees Cup in 1910. They have won the European Cup/UEFA Champions League 3 times. They have won the now defunct, European Cup Winners' Cup 4 times, and the old Inter-Cities Fairs Cup 3 times, which is more than any other club, for both trophies.

• • Done
• In the 'Finals' section, under the Year heading, some boxes are in yellow color while others are in gray. Please add a note stating what the different colors represent.
  • removed colours.
• The sections Inter Cities Fairs Cup (1955–1971)/ UEFA Cup (1971–2009)/ UEFA Europa League (post 2009), Finals, Semi-finals, and Succession Boxes are not reffed/sourced.

FC Barcelona was among the first participants in European football, and in 1904 the club began to play friendly games against teams from the neighbouring regions in France. Club president Arthur Witty organised the club's first trip abroad, which resulted in their first game against a non-Spanish team. On May 1, 1904, FC Barcelona defeated Stade Olympien des Étudiants Toulousains. The same opponents were then invited back to Barcelona to play the inaugural game at the Carrer Muntaner, one of the club's early homes. FC Barcelona won this game 4–0, with two goals from Joan Gamper.

In 1949, the football federations of Spain, Italy, France, and Portugal, came together and launched their own club competition. European clubs could not afford hefty travel costs so the Copa Latina was staged at the end of every season in a single host country.

• I made some very minor tweaks. It should look fine after you've worked on them further based on those suggestions.
  • Done
