-
Xavi assured that FC Barcelona will fight to the end in La Liga, despite being eight points behind Real Madrid.
Xavi doesn’t want to give up. After numerous disappointments in the championship, FC Barcelona seems condemned to let go of its title acquired last season. The Catalans are in third place in La Liga, eight points behind their great rival, Real Madrid. Before challenging Getafe this Saturday for the 26th day, Xavi was asked about the title race. The technician admits that it will be difficult without admitting defeat: “We are not throwing in the towel but we know it will be complicated ».
“We only have finals left”
Above all, the Spanish coach is aware that his team no longer has the right to make mistakes, while Girona is slotted into second place, two points ahead of Barça: “We had a very good reaction, but now we only have finals left until the end of the season “. FCB’s biggest chances probably lie in the Champions League. This will require defeating Naples at the Camp Nou in the round of 16 second leg, after a draw conceded this Wednesday in Italy.
