Barcelona coach Xavi admits they’re on a hiding-to-nothing against Barbastro today in the Copa del Rey.
Xavi is wary of their visit to the minnows.
He said, “We have very little to gain and much to lose. We are very favourites. Not just because of the division. We have to play with all five senses. They have the game of their lives before them.
“They are used to direct football. It already cost us against Intercity last year. Precedents tell us that it is not going to be easy. The goal is to reach the final and win it.”
On new signing Vitor Roque, Xavi said: “Tomorrow he will have minutes.
“The game is ideal for those who play less. But this is not the time to take tests because we want to pass. It won’t be easy and I have told the players that.”
