One of the priorities of Barcelona's Pep Guardiola is to move to second round of the Champions League. One of the mandatory conditions of Santpedor marks the early season. Since the ship runs Blaugrana has been consistently and unquestionably well, being the first group, which has always allowed the first round face direct Champions with the advantage of having the second leg at the Nou Camp. Guardiola Hence for tonight's game against Panathinaikos is a superlative importance. After getting the first title of the season, the Supercopoa in Spain with Sevilla, "indispensable to the next challenge comes in the season is to qualify for the knockout. Already had a first option in Denmark a fortnight ago but finally ended up tying the game, so now you have a second chance to enter through the front door to the second round, this time in Greece and against a team that is mired in a profound international crisis with included coaching change, and bottom of the section.
There is no doubt that both Pep and his players take this game seriously. First it must be the ticket to the round-one victory would ensure the classification and virtually the first place takes only a day, and second because it would be the best news to deal with the most appropriate environment of confidence on Monday at the Classic Real Madrid. Nobody in the locker room talk of Madrid. Is strictly prohibited. Yesterday at a press conference Guardiola and Sergio Busquets were the first to give an example of this new strategy which aims to prioritize the game against Panathinaikos and not give meat to the 'cave media' to feed their hunger for heating the match against Madrid . The Blaugrana coach plans to put his eleven gala at the Greek champions. None of reserves, much less thinking of the classic approaches. Today there is only one party and is vital to resolve a positive Blaugrana. So skip the last artillery tonight at the Spyros Louis. In fact, there was speculation yesterday that could only have a one piece minimum disruption to the team that everyone has in mind as the gala is eight world champions more Messi, Alves and Abidal. At first everything pointed to the possible entry of Africa to accompany Seidou Keita Xavi Hernandez in midfield, so then Iniesta would hasten his position and killed Pedro.
However, late yesterday the rumor that he might enter a new name to the fore, Brazilian Adriano, who would be placed on the left, as Abidal, despite receiving yesterday afternoon the discharge, no would still be one hundred per cent, while Maxwell could be an option to play as far left in the second half if the game is already underway. In the end we will leave doubts about an hour before the game starts is when Guardiola communicate alignment to UEFA. Or maybe just wait for the outcome of the match between Rubin and Copenhagen played in Kazan to six-thirty in the afternoon, because if you tie Russians and Danes, Barcelona jump onto the pitch knowing that already qualified, but obviously have not yet secured first place, since it would still add at least three more points to secure qualification as group winners. What is clear is that Pep did not want to wait to the last day on primarily because the record on rival touch him in contention in the final group game are not exactly to shoot rockets. And is that Rubin Kazan can proudly say that is one of the few teams in the world still do not know the meaning of what it is to lose against Barcelona, as in the three battles he has had in recent times has resulted in a victory for, and in the Nou Camp and two draws. Therefore, Guardiola does not want scares or surprises on the final day and wants to have everything tied up and securely tied before tackling the final round of the Champions League group stage.
In addition there is also a very important moral factor that Guardiola wants to continue using. Do not forget that your team has reached this stage of the season in a dynamic and impressive game winner and the goal is to maintain or increase it if possible to approach the game against Real Madrid next Monday with all the potential intact with the spirits fired into infinity. So there is still plenty of material to be cut in this game, you may still have many faces and edges, but obviously the feeling is very positive for the Blaugrana, especially how and another team comes into this game. Barcelona, as its president as "one liner", and Panathinaikos as a steamer adrift.
