Xavi Emphasizes Cruyffismo as Key to Success in Upcoming El Clasico Supercopa Final
Barcelona is set to face Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup final on Sunday, January 14, in a highly anticipated El Clasico showdown. In a press conference leading up to the clash, Barca’s head coach, Xavi, highlighted a crucial element for the team’s success.
“We are here for the title. It doesn’t matter if we play with three, four, or five midfielders. It is about fixing, triangulations, and numerical superiorities. A DNA that Johan Cruyff instilled 30 years ago,” Xavi asserted.
Reflecting on last year’s success, where Barcelona secured their first title under Xavi with a 3-1 victory over Madrid in the same Supercopa final in Riyadh, Xavi emphasized the importance of staying faithful to the Cruyffismo philosophy. This approach proved pivotal, setting the tone for their subsequent league triumph.
As the upcoming weekend approaches, Barcelona aims to replicate the success of the past year, once again relying on the principles instilled by Johan Cruyff.
