Champions League El Clasico – Xavi: Our game won’t change at all!

Atmosphere in the eye of the last El Clasico of the season is getting hot and tense as the kick off is closing. Both teams, Barcelona and Real Madrid are having the best odds to win the Champions League.

Barcelona’s midfielder Xavi insists his team will continue to force their attacking style of play against Real Madrid on Tuesday night. The Catalans are heading for the semi-final second-leg clash against their greatest rivals with 2-0 lead courtesy which they gained thanks to inspirational Lionel Messi. Xavi pointed out that as far as his side is concerned, the best form of defence is the attack.

“They will need to go out and look for the game more. They’ve lived on a counter-attacking game and been ultra defensive, but we have to be prepared for them to play higher up the pitch tomorrow. Whatever happens though, Barca will stay true to their own way of playing. Our game won’t change at all,” said the Spanish playmaker.
“We always attack and never try and sit back and defend a lead – we don’t know any other way to play and our fans would never let us.”

Xavi also said how he was disappointed about the furore surrounding from the first-leg meeting between two sides, which resulted Real’s Pepe being sent off and Mourinho sent to the stands for his protests. Barcelona’s substitute goalkeeper Jose Pinto was also shown red for his involment in half-time argue, but Xavi insists these things are behind and his and teammates sights are set on Tuesday’s match.

“I’m not one to judge the behavior of the Real Madrid manager,” Xavi said. “We try to talk about football, and it feels as if it isn’t talked about much. There is a bit about Madrid’s strategy and Barcelona’s strategy, but we focus on things that don’t have any importance in football. It makes me a little sad to talk about things that are outside of the game of football that we love so much. We try to do our best on the pitch and respect our opponents, and then play our game. Madrid have their weapons and their manager, who is a controversial figure – not just now, but always. We try to stay away from this. We would prefer that we all talk a bit more about football and not outside factors that reflect badly on the sport.”
