Before the commencement of the Clasico encounter against Real Madrid on Sunday, Barcelona Football Club President Joan Laporta urged the supporters to continue their faith in the club as Barcelona looks to right its ship following the Champions League match against Inter Milan.
Barcelona’s chances of advancing through the group stage of the Champions League took a devastating hit after the match ended in a 3-3 deadlock, but the best answer will be to defeat Real Madrid in a match that the entire football world will be watching.
Real Madrid and Barcelona both have the same number of points going into the game, however Barcelona is ahead of Real Madrid in the Spanish league rankings due to goal differential.
Keep your confidence because we have a highly competitive team with very good players who will offer you a lot of joy, Laporta advised the team’s supporters in a statement to the “Barcelona” TV channel.
Stand with Xavi; he needs your love and confidence, he continued.
We will give him this, and we expect the supporters to do the same.
Abizaid added, “I have total faith in Xavi, his tool, and the players.” We have a fantastic team, and I know it will make everyone happy. Our team is capable of competing with any team in Europe.
He emphasised: “We’ll cross this.” To get what we desire, we won’t ever give up. This club experienced every success and loss over the years, but we were able to bounce back.
This is still possible, and we can do it from every club area.
Laporta emphasised: We are leading the league and there is a significant match in Bernabeu standing in our way as he discussed the significance of the Sunday game in the race for the Spanish League championship.
And Abizaid: The El Clásico is a crucial game; the victor will get a significant morale boost, while the loser will experience sadness. You want to watch these kinds of games.
We’ll enter the game with our heads held high because we have a capable team.
He emphasised: I hope the players will defend the Barcelona jersey with the necessary fervour because no matter what happens, you must get back up. We want to demonstrate our talent and league-winning potential.
Laporta to Barcelona supporters: Please be kind to Xavi.
