COPA DEL REY MIGHT GIVE CATALANS A RAY OF HOPE!!
CAN BARCELONA COMEBACK FROM CHAMPIONS LEAGUE TRAUMA?
Its been just a few weeks that the Barcelona side suffered a dreadful result in the Champions league semi finals 2 leg by getting knocked out by Liverpool in humiliating manner by giving away a 3 goal advantage and thus raising questions on the teams performances and talent they have in their ranks.But all that can never be forgotten but can be forgiven if they take the copa del rey title at home with them which is against a resurgent Valencia side.
But the question is can Baarca focus on this tie or they are in for another surprise by the Valencia side??
The finals of Copa del rey is set to take place in City of Seville in Benito Villamarin which is home stadium for the Real betis side playing regular La liga football every season.
The questions come to mount up as the barcelona team has been performing below the level they usually showcase which is evident in their recent laliga game the narrow 2-0 win at home and 2-2 draw against the Eibar side. The problem here is clear that there is too much dependence on talent of Lionel Messi and Team certainly lacks a leader to push them forward in their dark times on the pitch.The valencia team surely do not lack talented player as in this season they have proved that they can poke this barca side a one or two problems ans get a positive results ans so have they done it.
The Valencia team faced barca twice thsi season in the La liga and both the games ended in a draw the first game at Camp nou ended at 1-1 in which Messi equalized and again in the 2 met up the valencia side was up by 2 goals again by the courtesy of Lio Messi they came back in the game as it ended 2-2.
This results clearly indicates that Valencia could be looking for more than just a draw in the finals as they look to capitalize on the current barca form, where as the Barcelona team might be looking to end the season on a positive note and gain the much needed confidence for the coming season.
