Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola has expressed caution to his side ahead of their second leg Champions League smeifinal against Real Madrid at the Camp Nou tomorrow.
The Blaugranas have a comfortable 2 goal lead going into the game at home, but Guardiola has refused to accept that his team will be relaxed due to the lead.
The Barca boss also reacted to Real madrid's charge of unsporting behaviour against some of their players during the first leg defending his players by saying that they teach certain values at the club which the players enever let go off.
Speaking to reporters on Monday, Guardiola has stated, “When you make these complaints, it’s because you believe them to be true."
“They may think we’re not fair and I think the opposite. I know my players much better than their legal department. At this club we transmit certain values to our people. The Madrid manager [Jose Mourinho] was here for four years and he knows that.”
“Real Madrid have 109 years of history but they do not have the power to decide who plays and who doesn’t, it is decided by Uefa. We do not decide or judge.”
The barca boss was also quick to shift his focus on to matters on the field and admitted it wont be easy for his side despite the two goals advantage and eechoed Real Madrid assistant boss Aitor karanka's comments about the game.
He added, “As Aitor [Karanka] said, there are 109 years of history between us. 11 extraordinary players are going to come out, guided by a very competitive manager who wants to knock us out. The most important thing in their lives right now is this game.”
The Catalan continued: “I don't know what Madrid to expect. They have such a strong team and so many players that they can play in several ways. This is a very tough semi-final tie. We shall see how strong mentally we are tomorrow. I know the fans will help us especially if things get tough.
