Barcelona coach Xavi admits he was surprised seeing Real Madrid defender Nacho’s suspension being reduced.
Nacho was banned for three games after his ugly challenge on Girona striker Portu. However, that has since been reduced to two games, so leaving Nacho available for next week’s El Clasico.
Referring to a previous suspension for Robert Lewandowski, Xavi said: “We were not frustrated because Lewandowski touched his nose.
“It is surprising as I have already said.”
On Lewandowski making the Clasico, he added: “He has very good sensations. He is a great leader and he always goes forward, he wants to be and every day it hurts less. He always pulls himself forward.”
