MATCH TOUR
“Zaragoza” - “Atletico”. Based on psychology, it is logical to consider the game from the point of view of perhaps the last serious demonstration of intentions to enter the "Champions League" zone. These teams crumple for most of the season at the foot of the leading four, although those in front will by no means shine. It seems that “Zaragoza” and “Atlético” have so firmly grown one to another that only a face-to-face dispute can change something. Any result will not be a tragedy for anyone, but it will help to determine the coordinate systems and values.
UNEXPECTED INTrigue
“Seville” - “Celta”. With the hosts seeming superior in all game and near-football components, one should not forget about the matches held this week in the UEFA Cup. “Celta” not only received an extra day of rest, but also held a return meeting with the “Bremen” in a walking mode. Unlike Sevilla, which needed overtime to clarify relations with Donetsk Shakhtar. In addition, the Andalusians need to keep in mind the upcoming March 20 finish (from the 57th minute) of the Spanish Cup match with Betis. Departure for Donetsk turned out to be a bunch of traumatic problems for Sevilla, however, the Celta infirmary is by no means empty. The Galicians were left without pivotal footballers. But, as the practice of the current season shows, it is in this situation that they are able to attract additional internal reserves.
DO NOT LOSE FROM THE VIEW
The steering of Real Madrid, Fabio Capello again quarreled with the attacking midfielder Antonio Cassano and sent his compatriot to the reserve. A similar conflict occurred at the end of last year, which is why the player was politely looking for a new club during the winter transfer market. However, Cassano flatly refused to leave Spain and continued to grind the bench. The thaw came when Capello simply had no other choice. After Beckham, Cassano returned to the main ring, hoping to enter the field in a duel with Barcelona. But the coach did not use the third substitution in this meeting, which angered Antonio. The reaction was quick: the footballer followed a familiar route - to the reserve.
IMPORTANT WORDS
“If the victory is on our side in the game with Athletic, I will certainly command the players to concentrate on playing in the UEFA Cup. And we will have nothing to do in the championship,” Jose Angel Siganda , the steering team of Osasuna .
BEAUTIFUL NUMBERS
The defender of “Valencia” David Navarro earned 7 months of disqualification for a fight after the match of the Champions League 1/8 finals with the Italian “Inter”. UEFA is determined to seek excommunication of the player from all matches involving his team. Including in the national championship.
