FC Barcelona and Atlético Madrid meet on 8th May in what could be a La Liga title decisive match.
Atletico plays third-place Barcelona a day before second-place Real Madrid hosts fourth-place Sevilla on a weekend that promises to shake up the closest title fight in years.
The encounter between the two sides last season ended 2-2 at the Camp Nou.
Both managers of the clubs, Ronald Koeman and Diego Simeone, spoke ahead of the big clash.
Koeman:
1. 00:00 – 00:17 SOUNDBITE (Spanish): Ronald Koeman, FC Barcelona coach:
«I don’t think the final result would be decisive because there will be still three more matches to play for everybody, but definitely will be important because there are not many matches left, but I don’t think it will be decisive. »
2. 00:18 – 00:45 SOUNDBITE (Spanish): Ronald Koeman, FC Barcelona coach:
«I think we are two very good teams, and we are fighting alongside with two more teams. It is not possible to compare both teams, because the style of each team is different, but there are more ways to win matches. The team as a whole is mentally strong. »
3. 00:46 – 01:20 SOUNDBITE (Spanish): Ronald Koeman, FC Barcelona coach:
«I have said it many times already, but the best thing is for Messi to stay, as everything is easier to plan ahead because you continue with the best player in the world. Of course, it is not only me, all the coaches are talking with their clubs about the preseason, the signings, the needs of the squad. I do it as all other coaches are doing.»
