Spain says: instead of going to presionar so up that the same they take us the back, go to go a bit backwards as it did Luis Aragonese. Here, pam-pam, they come you to presionar and then go out direct for Diego Coast… or for Luis Suárez that for this gives you a lot", commented Xavi.

And we did him a goal to the Athletic of Madrid to the against in the Glass of Rey! Luis Suárez did him an autopase to Giménez and threw him a pipe to David Luiz against the PSG. And we were all in own field. This was unthinkable in the Barça of Guardiola", said.

Xavi confessed that it is adherent of the football of attack always. "It depends of the trainer. To me it does not like me. Even winning 1-0 in the minute 89 I what want to and where seat me more to taste is in contrary field having the balloon and going to the attack", signalled.
