Barcelona head coach Xavi speaks about the upcoming Champions League match with Shakhtar.

“For us, this is a vital match. These are key points if we are to advance from the group. We have a difficult, dynamic, strong and technically gifted opponent. They play without fear; they go forward without problems. We have warned: if we think it will be easy, we will lose.”

"Our injury situation is not ideal but it is the situation we have at this moment. It is what it is and we have this: some player injured, Gavi suspended... But we are not here to complain, but to play better than the first half the other day. The fact that we have so many injuries will not be an excuse.”
