Xavi confirms Real Madrid dominance

The Barcelona coach spoke about the superiority of the opponent before the match of the first semi-final of the Copa del Rey: “My argument is that he won the last titles, the Spanish Championship or the European Championship, and we are under construction.”

He added: “It’s a strong Real Madrid that crushed Liverpool at home after being late, but we also have a lot of winning cards.”

Xavi believes that without Lewandowski and Pedri, he must be stronger, as he said: “You have to be a team more than ever, you have to be very brave, have a strong character, cut losses and have the ball.”

And about the last two defeats, against Manchester and Almeria, the Spaniard confirmed: “We are in the semi-final of the cup, we are close to the title, we played in Europe, despite the defeat, we are still a good team, the team has grown and continues grow, and in the league we continue to struggle.”

And he continued: “The only thing that defeat can bring us is negative criticism. What I have to do is tell the players that we have a chance to win the league and the cup, from here I show my personality.”

The Barça coach confirmed: “I’m happy to be here where I was last year. We won the Super Cup and we can win the league and the cup. We are in a privileged position to win the title and we’re fine.”

And he concluded that he did not expect any specific result: “Draw or defeat? We always go out to win, did not sign anything, and he insisted that Real Madrid is still a candidate, regardless of the Super Cup.”
