The versatile Brazilian player puts his weight behind Barcelona in the race for Spanish domestic supremacy.
April’s second weekend saw Barcelona bridge the gap between themselves and La Liga leaders, Real Madrid.
As it stands, Los Blancos have a four-point advantage in the Primera Division points table, with an El Clasico yet to be played between the two sides at the Camp Nou.
La Blaugrana beat resurgent Real Zaragoza at La Romareda, bringing their winning tally to an impressive 9 matches in Spanish top flight football.
On the other hand, Madrid could only manage a goalless draw against a http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863.
With seven matches remaining in the 2011/12 Primera Division campaign, Pep Guardiola’s charges are en route to claiming their fourth successive domestic title, reminiscent of Johan Cruyff’s 1990s ‘Dream team.’
Reflecting on the situation, Adriano put his weight behind Barcelona to triumph over their arch-rivals.
The Brazilian international stated that La Blaugrana have been marred by injury problems throughout the campaign but he never doubted their ability to usurp Real Madrid in the points table.
"The things that have happened to us and the injuries we have had have been a shame."
"When we were 10 points behind, I believed that the Liga would give us a chance, and here we are, happy,” he told reporters after their match against Real Zaragoza.
Continuing on La Liga title race, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Adriano-c3773 opined that a lot of matches are still left to be played and believes nothing can be said of certain.
He added that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 need to concentrate on their own domestic outings as they cannot have any bearing on the results enjoyed by Real Madrid. However, he stated that they have a winning run behind them and hoped it will spur them on to glory.
"Now, we are three points behind. We cannot have any influence on Madrid's matches. We can only think about ourselves.”
"We have always believed we can win the title. And we will keep believing."
Barcelona continue their domestic adventures in midweek as they host Getafe at the Camp Nou in their next La Liga fixture on Tuesday, April 10.
