La Blaugrana goalkeeper is adamant that they still have a chance to win La Liga despite conceding a seven-point lead to Jose Mourinho’s Real Madrid.
The recent round of league matches saw Los Blancos register their 15th win in their last 17 La Liga outings. Jose Mourinho’s charges put up an entertaining show at the Santiago Bernabeu, coming back from a goal down to win the match 3-1.
On the other hand, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 continued their less than spectacular form on the road. The Catalans were consigned to a goalless draw against an inspired Villarreal, bringing their tally of dropped points on away travels to 13.
With Real Madrid commanding a sizeable 7-point gap at the top of La Liga rankings, the crown of Spanish champions looks set to exchange hands at the end of the season.
However, Jose http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pinto-c30032 is adamant that Barcelona can still retain their title. The experienced stopper stated that the title race is not over and they will not give up until the end.
Pinto accepted their faults and added that they have a very small margin of error in the latest challenge that besets them.
"The message coming from the squad is one of faith and confidence. We have very little margin for error, but we're not giving anything up," Pinto told Barcelona’s official website.
"Challenges emerge every day, and that's good. We are excited about excelling ourselves and achieving every target we have. The squad has always shown that it can stay strong despite any setbacks. The team is optimistic.”
Motivation for more silverware honours for the Catalan team was always going to come under question, and Pinto believes this is just a phase which will boil over.
He commended the excellent http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 done by the staff at the Camp Nou and reaffirmed the squad’s commitment to their start of season goals.
"We aren't tired. We have good coaches and physios but it is hard for everything to work out perfectly every day. But the team is fully committed."
After their stumble against Villarreal, Barcelona continue their Copa del Rey journey. They lock horns with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863 in the semi-final, after knocking out Real Madrid in the previous round.
