 | | Rummenigge: Barcelona is the best team in Europe12.04.2013 |
CEO of Bayern Munich Karl Heinz Rummenigge said after the draw for the semi-finals of the Champions League that Bayern will face the best team in Europe - Barcelona. According to him, it is Barca are big favorites to win the tournament, but Bayern will be able to show how grown up since the last meeting between the two teams in 2009.
"Barcelona is a trademark for me in Europe. They won the Champions League than any other team in recent years. They are the best team in Europe at the moment with fantastic attacking potential. We played against them in 2009, and was bad for us. I remember this match well and do not like to think about it because it was quite painful to watch. However, this is a great opportunity to show that we have developed a lot since then, "said Rummenigge.
"I think we will see two very good matches, played at the highest level possible. Moreover, I think to play at home first is a slight advantage, contrary to popular thinking, it is a disadvantage. We have seen Juventus where the people said it would be a disadvantage. But we made a great game at home and set the stage for this rematch and our ranking in the semifinals. I am truly excited that we will play against the best team in Europe. I still believe that Barcelona is the big favorite to win the Champions League, "added Rummenigge.
