Liga And The Champions League
The Barca captain has vouched for his coach and team after their Copa del Rey exit and assured that the Blaugrana will fight even harder for La Liga and the Champions League...
In an attempt to take the positives away from being dumped out of the Copa del Rey by Sevilla yesterday, Barcelona defender Carles Puyol has assured fans that his team will focus on taking the Liga and Champions League titles this season.
"None of us likes having been eliminated from a competition and it is no consolation to me that we have fallen to a team as good as Sevilla," declared the captain in comments reported by Sport.
Puyol also contradicted his coachPep Guardiola , who declared yesterday that he felt he had failed the team, stating instead that "Guardiola has not failed us".
"He prepared us very well for the match and it was by very little that we fell out of the compeitition. I have always said that it is the players who win or lose matches. We are very proud of Guardiola."
"The important thing is to learn from this situation and the rest that comes with being out of the Copa, after two demanding seasons with many matches and few days off, will prepare us well to play even better for La Liga and the Champions League".
