The Spanish international admitted that his side are not completely flawless and has stated that they can be broken at home.
Barcelona’s Xavi Hernandez is of the opinion that the current Spanish champions are not invincible and can be defeated, even at their home.
The midfielder made the statement speaking specifically ahead of his side’s El Clasico clash against its traditional rivals, Real Madrid.
La Blaugrana will play host to the Santiago Bernabeu outfit in their next Spanish La Liga fixture on Saturday. The Clasico, which will take place at the Nou Camp, has the potential to be an explosive encounter and audiences all over the world are hoping
just for that.
Heading into the match, Pep Guardiola’s men are likely to have a slight mental advantage as they play the match at home. Apart from that, the Catalan giants have also pulled off a remarkable comeback in the Spanish Primera Division’s league standings.
At the start of the previous month, Los Blancos boasted a 10-point lead over Barca at the top of the table. Many had predicted that Jose Mourinho’s men had already snatched the Liga BBVA title away from the current Spanish champions.
However, contrary to popular belief, Madrid could not maintain their lead at the top of the table. The last couple of weeks saw Los Merengues drop a number of points, and their advantage over Barca was reduced to just 4 points.
Considering these developments, football purists have predicted that Saturday’s encounter may decide which of the two Spanish giants will win silverware this year.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 number 6 has insisted that La Blaugrana will try their best to emerge victorious; however, he maintained that a defeat is also possible.
While talking to reporters, the 32-year-old stated:
"No, we are not invincible. Moreover, we have lost before. The solution is to take the ball from us, or to rig the conditions of the game, like making the ground very dry. When the conditions are artificial and the ball can be slowed, we can have problems.”
After all is said and done, audiences all over the world are eager to find out what Saturday’s El Clasico has got in store for us.
