Iniesta excited by Euro vision
Monday, February 22nd, 2010
Andres Iniesta has warned holders Barcelona have no intention of relinquishing their Champions League crown (Barcelona 3/1 Champions League – Outright).
Barca bounced back from their first defeat in La Liga by beating Racing Santander 4-0 on Saturday without a host of senior first-team players, although Xavi and Dani Alves are expected to return on Tuesday against Stuttgart (Stuttgart 7/2 draw 12/5 Barcelona 4/6 Champions League – match betting) in the last 16 of Europe’s premier club competition.
Iniesta, who was making his 300th appearance for the Catalan giants, said Barca were over their blip and ready to move into top gear for the defence of their European title.
“When you lose what you want is to play again quickly and win, and this gives us confidence for Tuesday’s game,” said the Spain international.
He added: “The Champions League is a competition we like a lot and on Tuesday we have to get a good result.”
Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who missed Saturday night’s 4-0 win over Racing because of an ankle problem, has also been included in the trip to Germany along with youngsters Jonathan dos Santos and Marc Bartra, but Seydou Keita and Eric Abidal are out.
