The Catalonians want to revive the spirit of their legendary team. Xepkin and Barrufet surely know what it means...
Barcelona need the Magic of Palau Blau Grana
Barcelona will be playing for the semi-final when they host GOG Gudme and Pick Szeged in the last two rounds. The Catalonian club is working to evoke the dream team and the historic successes that they reached against clubs such as Badel Zagreb or Kiel.
The Cadenas team are in a very good situation. Their future depends on the two games and one victory may even be enough to reach the semi-finals.
Iker Romero, Nagy and the others will try play in the spirit of the legends: Masip, Ortega, Cavar, Guijosa or Garralda.
Andrei Xepkin and David Barrufet also belong to this legendary generation. They lived special moments and won titles helped in a fabulous atmosphere created by the Barcelona fans.
A 3-goal victory against Gudme could be enough, but Barcelona do not want to make a mistake. A Danish success would mean take the guests to a favourable position.
Barcelona prepared for this decisive match with an easy victory in the Asobal League against Teka Cantabria. These two points took the Cadenas-team to the top of the Spanish table, although Ciudad Real played one match less. Romero and Lozano were the best scorers of the Catalonians with six goals and they showed that they are in good form before the Champions League game.
