The Copa del Rey clash wasn't as easy as many people thought for the Blaugrana. The Seville team ran riot right from the first minute, missing a close header after a Daniel Alves cross.
Alves later troubled Barca keeper Valdes again, and then went on to rattle to Blaugrana woodwork before Navas put Sevilla ahead though the goal was rightly ruled offside. Bojan Krkic was equally impressive in the match, coming in as a 55th minute sub for Eidur Gudjohnsen and upsetting the entire Sevilla defence before almost grabbing the winner for Barca in the dying minutes of the game. The talented teenager spoke after the colourful battle, saying:
  We have shown calmness and that we are a team. We went out to win the game but we took it calm because they were the side that was playing catch up. Sevilla played well but we knew how to hold on and create occasions. You always suffer when you try to hold on to a 0-0 draw and there is that fear but we showed that we have a strong team.
Bojan will feature for FC Barcelona in the La Liga match on Sunday, 20th January against Racing Santander. Venue is Camp Nou and kick-off time is 21:00 hours. |
