Barcelona head coach Ernesto Valverde shared his opinion on the forthcoming match of the 1/4 finals of the Champions League against Roma.

Match Barcelona - Roma will be held on April 4, and the return match - the 10th.

"If you watched the way Roma played in the band, it's hardly surprising that they got so far. They reliably act on the defensive and have interesting options in the attack. This is a very attractive quarterfinal confrontation "- quoted Valverde official website of UEFA.

"As far as I know, the status of the favorite does not mean anything. It does not determine the result. All in the hands of teams.

To defeat Roma, we must show an outstanding football ".

"I really hope that in the stands of the Camp Nou will be a huge number of fans. I want them to support and drive us forward in the same way as it was in the match against Chelsea ".

"The fact that now is April, and we still pretend to win in all the tournaments in which we participate, speaks about the talent of my players".

"Messi - a unique football world. This is the most unique player in the history of football ".
