Xavi obliged Barcelona to beat Inter Milan
By db-admin
DBasia.news – Barcelona will undergo a match of life and death when they meet representatives of Italy, Inter Milan.
Defeat against Inter will end their Champions League campaign and Xavi is fully aware of the scale of the match at Camp Nou.
Speaking ahead of the game, the Barca boss said: “We expect Inter to play very similar to how they played at Milan.
“They have low blocks, but we have alternatives. We are ready, we have to look like Barca from the last 20 minutes in Milan.
“This is a final for us. We are in an uncomfortable situation but we will give everything.”
Inter are second in the group on six points, three ahead of third-placed Barcelona, after beating the Spanish giants 1-0 at the San Siro following Hakan Calhanoglu’s only goal.
El Clasico against Real Madrid at the weekend will be on Xavi’s mind as his team prepares to face Inter.
Barca themselves will face their rivals on Sunday, but all focus is now on Inter in avoiding an early exit in the Champions League group stages.
