Guardiola: ‘I am very satisfied, we really have to fight for these points but there’s still a long way to go’
Guardiola: ‘We were up against a very good Sporting side, who put a lot of men behind the ball, sticking together and leaving very little space. It’s always hard to win here, Sporting have some very proud and young players and really fight. What’s more, we came into the game after a long trip and this is a very difficult ground to win at. Even so, they had very few chances to score’
Guardiola: ‘Credit to Preciado (Sporting Gijon’s coach). You just have to see how his team behaves. I believe you always have to look at the players and I can see their enthusiasm which is always a sign that they are with the manager. This team is alive and Manolo knows better than anybody how to manage these situations. It doesn’t matter where he is, you can always recognise his teams. Any big team coming here will have to fight really hard’
Guardiola: ‘Every time we have come off a Champions League game, we have found things hard for us. We played well in the first 30 minutes’
– The win at El Molinon yesterday is as valuable as any other: THREE points, no more, no less. The Asturians fought their corner with courage and carried out their game plan well, with Messi and friends unable to break their defense.
In the end, an ugly goal from Adriano means FC Barcelona are now La Liga leaders.
FC BARCELONA ARE BACK TO THE TOP OF THE TABLE, LET’S STAY THERE UNTIL THE LAST MATCH!!!!!
