Barcelona receives Ajax on Tuesday in the
third round of the Champions League
tournament that adds 3 points, a result of the
win against APOEL Nicosia and defeat against PSG. Group F has proved more difficult than expected for the Catalans, who have suffered with the Cypriot
winning by the minimum at the Camp Nou, while in Paris the points and ideas left.
Now comes to a new chance to get back on track, although the opponent,
Dutchman Frank de Boer set, also appears as
a candy.
The team 'ajacied' adds two draws and is
third in Group F with
2 points behind Barca.
They are desperate for a win if they want to have
a chance to walk forward and look
to the knockout stages, but Luis
Enrique, who knew Frank de Boer hardly be
willing to give at home and also want to avoid beginning to doubt the capacity Barcelona and the new project. Both
clubs, who share a lot of history
and philosophy, were
first in the group stage last season with the Tata
Martino command, the
result was a Barca victory
at the Camp Nou 4-0
but 2-1 loss at
the Amsterdam Arena.
Luis Enrique and
Frank De Boer
defended Barca colors
together from 1999-2003,
during which time the Dutch played
144 league games and won the tournament title in Spain in his first
season. But for now touched their technical
also
being rivals both Teams and the
time when Luis Enrique
played for Real Madrid and his team lost to Ajax
where he played Frank De Boer. Without
a doubt two old friends who reunite and can make the meeting more interesting.
If we look a little controversy and debate for this meeting will not be hard to find in the
Barca goal. After
the good numbers Claudio Bravo in the league and
evil Ter Stegen debut in the Champions
League, the fans prefer to watch
the Chilean, however it seems that
Luis Enrique has
decided that the young German is the one that takes the
reins European tournament, so he
thinks and will be made known
until the lineup when the doubts are cleared.
