0

As Barcelona gears up to face Athletic Bilbao at San Mamés this Sunday, the pressure is on for Xavi Hernández’s squad to secure three crucial points and keep their hopes of a La Liga comeback alive.

The team carries the recent memory of their Copa del Rey elimination at the same venue, but they are well aware that their opponent might feel the effects of the effort put into reaching the final of that competition last Thursday. Additionally, the confidence boost from an outstanding performance against Getafe last Saturday adds to the dynamics.

In the lead-up to the San Mamés clash, Xavi shared his thoughts, acknowledging the significance of the match and the team’s obligation to secure a victory. Here are some of the standout quotes from Xavi:

  1. On the Importance of the Match: “It’s the moment of truth. We are facing the most physical and intense opponent in the league. Winning would be a significant step forward.”
  2. On Recent Form and Confidence: “Now we are doing well, I see the team looser, more responsible, with more dynamism… It’s the moment of truth, with direct rivals coming up, the Champions League… it’s the decisive stretch of the season, but the feelings are positive.”
  3. On the Upcoming Challenges: “Now comes ‘the moment of truth.’ We have direct rivals, the Champions League… it’s the decisive stretch of the season, but the feelings are positive.”
  4. On Ferran Torres’ Return: “For the San Mamés clash, Xavi won’t have Ferran Torres back. The return of the Valencian is expected for the next match against Mallorca.”

As Barcelona navigates through the complexities of San Mamés, Xavi Hernández remains focused on the task at hand, aiming to build on recent successes and maintain momentum in the pursuit of their La Liga aspirations.
