"Barcelona" head coach Gerardo Martino is not too worried about the UEFA Champions League opponents and believes in the success of his team. Today, the draw for the quarter-finals took place at the UEFA headquarters, bringing together the clubs "Manchester City" and "Barca". "Of course, we hoped to face a weaker opponent, but we will have to face 'Man City'," said the Argentine. "The most important thing is to play as best as we can at our stadium and be in great shape." "Everyone has to play against whoever is drawn, but 'Man City' certainly wanted to avoid 'Barca'. This team has great players, but our goal is to beat them in both matches," added G. Martino. The first match at the "Etihad" stadium will take place on February 18, and the second leg on March 12 will be played at the "Camp Nou" stadium.
