The next Barcelona match is upon us! The Blaugrana travel to the Mestalla stadium for a rather unnecessary second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final against Valencia. And coach Luis Enrique has picked his squad for the game.
It is a somewhat shocking selection. There were some doubts about whether or not the coach would rotate his men and play a reserve team after the 7-0 win last Wednesday. Not only did Enrique rotate, he went all in with six Barça B youngsters. In total, eleven key first team players are out of tonight's clash: Claudio Bravo, Dani Alves, Jordi Alba, Gerard Piqué, Javier Mascherano, Sergio Busquets, Arda Turan, Andrés Iniesta and the 'MSN' trio. The only key star to play is Ivan Rakitic, who will probably start and captain the side.
These are the eighteen men called by Lucho to be in uniform at Mestalla:
Goalkeepers: 1. Marc-André ter Stegen, 25. Jordi Masip
Defenders: 2. Douglas Pereira, 15. Marc Bartra, 21. Adriano Correia, 22. Aleix Vidal, 23. Thomas Vermaelen, 24. Jérémy Mathieu
Midfielders: 4. Ivan Rakitic, Wilfried Kaptoum, Sergi Samper, Gerard Gumbau, Carles Aleñá (Barça B)
Forwards: 17. Munir El-Haddadi, 19. Sandro Ramírez, Juan Cámara, Dani Romera (Barça B)
Projected Starting Lineup (4-3-3):
Ter Stegen; Douglas, Bartra, Mathieu, Adriano; Samper, Rakitic, Roberto; Vidal, Munir, Sandro
The match starts at 21:00 CET, and you can join us to follow and comment all the action.
VISCA EL BARÇA!
