The 2006/07 season was the first for Frank Rijkaard's Barça in decline following the 2006 La Liga-Champions League double, with a squad that still featured Ronaldinho, Deco, Xavi, Iniesta, and a young Messi who was beginning to take center stage. The club finished second in La Liga behind Real Madrid and was eliminated in the Champions League quarterfinals by Liverpool, marking the beginning of the end of the Rijkaard cycle. Nike outfitted Barça during that period with a training line that complemented the official kits, technical garments for daily use at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper that were part of the club's complete equipment.
