The Portuguese mentor spoke about his direct rivals, Barcelona, before the Supercopa de Espana and stated that he believes that they haven’t changed as compared to last season.
Barcelona and Real Madrid will be facing each other in the Supercopa de Espana and the fixture has a lot of anticipation attached to it, as two of the best sides in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 are going to collide in order to take the ultimate prize.
Los Blancos are the current champions of Spain, as they managed to dethrone La Blaugrana after they won the Spanish La Liga title for three consecutive years.
Mourinho was able to break Barcelona’s dominance over Spanish football, as he helped Real Madrid win the Spanish La Liga title.
However, on the other hand, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 were able to secure the Spanish Supercup, and also won the Copa del Rey.
Now, with Barcelona winning the Copa del Rey and Real Madrid winning the Spanish La Liga title, the two teams are going to face each other in the Supercopa de Espana, a title which is decided over two legs.
The first leg is going to take place at the Nou Camp on Thursday and Jose Mourinho spoke about his opponents a day before the game.
The Portuguese mentor mentioned that the Catalan giants haven’t changed much as a team; however, he also stated that Tito Vilanova is going to try and change the style-of-play so he can leave his own mark on the team.
While speaking about his opposition before the fixture, Jose Mourinho stated:
“It's a team with practically all the same players from last season and their style, which could change because Vilanova will have to have some way of differentiating himself. Barcelona is the same team that we've seen in recent years, a quality team with
great players. It doesn't seem very different to me from last season's team.”
The second leg of the Supercopa de Espana is going to take place at the Santiago Bernabeu on 29th of August.
Real Madrid will be travelling to the Nou Camp without their first-choice centre-back, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pepe-c29670, while Tito Vilanova has each and every player available at hand.
