The Blaugrana tactician has warned his players that they cannot underestimate the Ukrainian side...
Barcelona's young coach Pep Guardiola is fully concerted on tomorrow night's UEFA Super Cup final against Shakhtar Donetsk, which he trusts will not be as easy as some believe."Shakhtar are a very hard opponent," he told Sport."They are a team that know how to draw out the ball from the back, they have two wonderful centre backs and are able to dominate games."Finals are always very difficult and here (at Stade Louis II in Monaco) we are playing a European champion," the coach explained, adding that if Barcelona don't play well, "it will be impossible to win".Guardiola then notified his players that history was against them, as the Champions League winners didn't seem to take the competition as seriously as the UEFA Cup victors."We are going to play a match where the UEFA Cup winner has won seven times and the Champions League winner four times, so it's very hard to win here."Those who win the Champions League seem to only come here to accumulate prizes and look at boats. We won't relax as we know it's very hard to reach (the final)," he concluded.
