Miranda: "To win, we need intensity and be physically well"
The Brazilian midfield bets on being intense at the match that decides the League title at Camp Nou. He claims they’re working hard this week and that they’ll get there in top shape.
The League will be decided this Saturday, May 17th at 18:00 and Joao Miranda appeared at the pressroom before the final at Camp Nou to assure, "Barcelona is an enormously great team and we’ll try to win knowing that a draw is enough. It’s a difficult team because they play football very well. To beat them we need intensity and to be physically well. We are preparing this week and we’ll get there in top shape".
Both teams know each other well after having played together up to five times throughout the season. "The Champions second leg match was different. We played at home and for sure, here, Barça will come out strong. We’ll have to be strong and safe at the back to then try to score a goal", says number '23’.
It is a week that everyone wanted to live at the beginning of year
The spectacular season of the midfield had him as a possible candidate to play Brazil’s World Cup with the host’s National Team, but Scolari did not include him in the list of 23 players called for the event. "I was sad but I only think of my club, where I’m every day. I live what is happening to me here and only think of these two finals we have to win", he concluded.
