Barcelona Vs Atletico Madrid Copa Del Rey (1 - 0) On 21st January 2015 by Omooba77: 10:10pm On Jan 15, 2015 |
Atletico meet Barcelona in the quarter final of Copal Del Rey..... If the Catalans had scored four or even five, it would've been a fair reflection of the balance of play over the 90 minutes.One thing is for certain, however. Diego Simeone will not allow his charges to play that badly again. And they showed over two legs against Real Madrid just what a force they remain in the competition.It will surely be a heavyweight cup clash for the purist with no quarter asked or given on either side.Certainly there would be no disgrace in losing to a side that continue to perform miracles for Simeone and whose team spirit and never-say-die attitude has won them many admirers.Not that Luis Enrique will be considering a cup exit, mind you.Given that Barca should be challenging for the main honours year in and year out, and now that Real Madrid are out of the competition, there will be an expectation in Catalonia that Barca can go all the way this year and extend their record in the competition.Andres Kudacki/Associated PressThe Copa del Rey is a cup that Barcelona have a particular affinity with.With that expectancy, comes pressure. Pressure to deliver both a decent performance and ultimately a positive result.Should Barca fall at this hurdle, the pressure that will fall upon Luis Enrique will weigh heavily on his shoulders.With injuries meaning that the manager will start with a different XI for the 28th time in succession against Deportivo La Coruna in the league, by the time of the first leg of the cup tie, an astonishing 29 different starting lineups will have been named.In direct contrast to Carlo Ancelotti at Real Madrid who refuses to rotate his lineup, is Enrique making a rod for his own back?If the Catalans were to lose the cup tie, regardless of the standard of the performance, does Lucho deserve to fall on his sword at that point?Would it then make sense to bring in a new manager for the remainder of the league season and the business end of the Champions League? Someone who can unite and re-energise the squad. Should Luis Enrique be sacked if Barcelona lose their Copa del Rey tie against Atleti? Yes NoSubmit Vote vote to see resultsSome would surely point to any such decision being a little harsh. After all, Enrique has lost just once since the beginning of November to a club in Real Sociedad that the Catalans traditionally struggle against.WhoScored.com detail 13 wins from their last 15 matches in all competitions so arguably the manager can argue that his modus operandi is working, despite the picture that the media continues to paint.That run has included some epic wins, too.A 5-0 manita against a strong Sevilla side, 3-1 vs. Paris Saint-Germain and eight games where Barca have scored four or more goals.How much more does the manager need to do to convince the doom-mongers?

athletico madrid! they are a team you always want to underrate but they always fvck you up. you need to stand up to them and fight, tackle and run run run for 90 mins. like simeone said 'their mothers gave them big balls'. even as a barca fan i've got maximum respect for this team. i expect a midfield of rakitic, iniesta and busquets. 2 Likes |

The Copa del Rey is the only trophy Atletico Madrid has a shot at this season...the league is for madrid, the UCL is still open so the Copa del Rey is their only chance of silverware this season. Its going to be a tough match, but I see Atletico going into the semis. |
