"The return to the round of 16 is an important motivation for us, it pushes us to go to the quarter-finals of the most important competition. Tomorrow we want to win but we are aware that it is a match without favourites, it's 50% us and Napoli."
Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez said this on the eve of the Champions League match at Maradona.
"We have prepared the match and we will have to show what we have worked on - said he worked here and it's not easy for us to prepare for the match, with the new coach you don't know what team you're facing."
"I don't know how Napoli will change, tomorrow we'll see what tactical system is used. Napoli played with a 5 line with Mazzarri, we know that Calzona never played a 5 line, but we'll see - continued Xavi -. The important thing for us is that my players feel good on the pitch, knowing that we play for the fans who want Barca to do well. We've had an up-and-down season but we're playing the Champions League not thinking about controversies, but rather aiming to reach the top in Europe For me the watchword is competing
