XAVI’S REUNION WITH BRUNO
XAVI IN PREVIEW
“We knew that people would be 10, now it’s our turn to respond. Let’s see if we give our best version with our identity, let’s see if we go to the quarterfinals after four seasons, let’s see if we’re good.”
“I think it will be a very even match, they are looking for the same thing as us, which is to be protagonists with the ball. They are also a very physical team. Whoever has the ball more will get more. More in all, try to be more effective than in the first leg. where we were better than them and we didn’t know how to exploit it”
“The two can give us different things. Raphinha is very deep, he has a shot from outside… same as Fermín with more control. We lack a high caliber of midfielder, but Fermín can give us calmness, that pause and that second line of entry. They are very dynamic footballers, but above all we have to have control of the game.”
“He’s earned it, in the end that’s what he’s building. Security, hierarchy, despite being 17 years old, the feeling it gives that he’s in the team is incredible. He’s got it”
“Now I’m not nervous anymore, normally before the game I’m not nervous, after the game I’m more tense”
BRUNO, PRESENT
POSSIBLE PENALTY GETTING BY NAPLES

The round of 16 will throw Barça and Naples against each other this Tuesday in Montjuïc in a second leg match that will start in absolute balance, because at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium the scoreboard reflects a 1-1 tie. Il Mattino, a leading media outlet in Naples, has established a hypothetical ranking of the potential to throw the Italian champion in the event that the qualification for the quarterfinals should be settled from the eleven meters
