The retired shot-stopper has voiced his opinion regarding the Blaugrana and their performance in European grand tournament, suggesting that they will be looking to cement a spot in the last 16 in their next encounter.

Barcelona’s director of football, Andoni Zubizarreta, has expressed that the Catalan giants are planning to secure a victory in their UEFA Champions League group stage fixture.
The Nou Camp outfit are set to lock horns with Spartak Moscow in midweek in their next European match. The match will help the Spanish giants confirm a spot in the quarter-finals of the prestigious tournament.
Tito Vilanova’s men will face Spartak on Tuesday and will be hoping for a victory in order to redeem the defeat they suffered in the previous match.
Barca had to endure a shock loss to Celtic in their latest Champions League fixture. The Catalans travelled to Glasgow as heavy favourites to come away with a victory. Many had predicted that the Copa del Rey champions will face little difficulty in securing
a second group stage victory over the Greens.
However, matters were not as Vilanova’s men had expected. Celtic were able to put up a great show in their home stadium as they successfully defeated La Azulgrana with a score of 2-1.
Despite having won the previous leg of the fixture, the Spanish giants were unable to pave their victory in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Scotland-c756.
As a result, Zubizarreta has emphasized that the Catalans will not be looking to repeat the disappointment.
"Our goal is to qualify for the next round as soon as possible. We must win on Tuesday for that to happen," the Spaniard was quoted as saying on Barcelona’s official website.
"We weren’t able to clinch qualification in Glasgow, but we are hopeful that we can do it in Moscow. We’re aware of how difficult the match will be because Spartak are running out of options to get to the next round."
While discussing http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296, he stated that the Argentine is not focused on winning individual accolades.
"He doesn’t play to break individual records. What he wants is to win with the team and contribute to the group with his work."
