The Barça-Inter of Champions League

Of the staff interista, Xavi stood out especially two names, the ones of Icardi and Perisic that, definitely, are the big stars of the Italians: "I imagine Me the challenge like the one of 2010, more or less. The Barça will play the balloon and the Inter will defend and afterwards will try to go out in speed with Icardi and Perisic. My ex mates of team are favourite and will see that they dominate the possession to put to his opponents in problems. If you try not suffering, go out of the Camp Nou ileso is not easy".

Also it stood out the importance that Leo Messi was lesionado, since the Inter will have a problem less than the that concern. "Not to confront to Messi is a big advantage for Spalletti because I Read is the best player with the one who have played, is the only that it can mark the difference in case same and anytime", commented.
