 | | Guardiola: Now Chelsea are favorites2.07.2012 |
Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola said that he believes Chelsea for favorite in semi-final clash between the two teams in the Champions League. "Blue" beat with 1:0 at home the present champion in the competition, but they have a very serious visit on "Nou Camp" after a week.
"Now Chelsea are favorites, but we have 90 minutes to give everything to win this clash."
"Today we had 24 opportunities for goal but we didn't scored. I hope and in the second leg to create more but this time to score."
"The result is just as it is. We control the ball and created a huge number of positions for such a phase, but the fact that we are leaving without a goal is not pleasant."
"They realized and in the the second leg I expect 10 people in their own half. Let this be our goal - if we want to be the best, we have to win."
Guardiola refused to criticize the tactics of his colleague Roberto Di Matteo and pointed out that the result in any case is not unfair.
"I am not the man who can tell how to play Chelsea. Let's not miss the fact that they played six semifinals in the last nine years."
"An unjust result? I do not think so. This is football. You don't win with the possession of the ball - if it was so, we would win all the time. To win, you must score goals and that's what we will try to do in the second leg" promised Guardiola .
