WORST: Iniesta’s injury 

When Iniesta came on the pitch before the half hour mark and Guardiola put his hands to his head, he feared the worst. After David Villa’s injury in the Club World Cup, just missing the Fuentealbilla also thickened the infirmary with an injury that was initially presumed more serious than the end it was. Finally, Don Andres is about two weeks off, just the Christmas holiday period, but could be a high price for the club in a match played a set with several regular starters.

GUARDIOLA: “THE NEXT THREE GAMES ARE A DANGEROUS PHASE”

“What we’re waiting until the end of the year is fascinating, and it all starts winning tomorrow,” said FC Barcelona coach, Pep Guardiola, who described the match against Getafe on “vital and fundamental”

Getafe, Levante Ray and cross into the path of the boat before the visit to the Bernabeu. Then came the great event of the end of year: the World Club Cup in Japan. Guardiola knows that to get the classic live, your team must win the next three league games. ”This is a very dangerous stage and we have to focus. We put a lot of mental effort to not allow ourselves to points along the way,” he said.

Although the coach of Barça victory account for visits to the Coliseum Alfonso Perez, warned that the team of Luis Garcia, as always, will not easy.”The coach who now heads the Getafe is the one that was on the east coast last year, and we had a hard time beating the two parties. It’s a team that has been bolstered this year and are at that stage to finish adjusting the parts, but the things I do do well, “he argued Guardiola, who stressed that all Madrid is better than showing the classification, it” has lost many games and tied in the final minutes. ”

In Getafe, Barca travel without Andres Iniesta, also in San Siro absent because of a bruised left thigh suffered in the last league match against Zaragoza. Guardiola said that Iniesta “is nothing serious,” but “not just be fine” and prefers to reserve “given what we have before Christmas and then in January when we will play most of the Cup.”

Nor will travel to Madrid his assistant Tito Vilanova, recovering from surgery who underwent the last Wednesday in the parotid gland. ”He’s following the usual steps in a post-operative, but is encouraged. He is strong and this will make you even stronger,” Guardiola said after visiting the Thursday at the Hospital Vall d’Hebron.
