Defender Roma Federico Fasio shared his expectations from the match against Barcelona.

Today, April 4, will be the first match of the quarter finals of the Champions League between Roma and Barcelona.

"I watched the Barca match against Sevilla on the weekend. Andalusians played very cool, creating a huge problem in Barcelona. But they could not kill the. This is a good lesson - if you missed the chance to secure the three points early, then Barcelona in a very short time can turn everything on its head, "- said Fazio before the match.

"I do not want to talk about the chances of teams to enter the semifinals in percentage terms. I think the confrontation looks very interesting. We treat our opponent with respect, but we are hungry to win and we want to stand up for the honor of our club. Now it does not matter how we got here. What matters is what we need to do next ".

"Everyone knows the strengths of Leo Messi. This is the best football player of the planet. But we need to think not only about him! It is necessary to monitor every player in Barcelona. Yeah, the test really has to be serious, "- concluded the player.
