The absence of Ter Stegen closed, for now, the debate in goal and reconfirms the ownership of the Chilean Claudio Bravo, and lack of shooting Jordi Alba would give the square side lefty French Lucas Digne, one of the new signings Barca.


And the central Samuel Umtiti wait their turn in the rear, where the pairing of Gerard Pique and Javier Mascherano has all the numbers to form the shaft.

The two doubts in the starting eleven will be the right side -Sergi Roberto and Aleix Vidal struggle to keep the position vacated by Dani Alves- and companion Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez pointed.

During these weeks of preparation, the players elected by Luis Enrique to complete the offensive trident in the absence of Neymar have been the Turkish Arda Turan and the young Munir El Haddadi, however, could leave the club on loan if finally the Catalan club closes hiring a striker.

Defensive frailty was the only but a team that, again led by a sublime Messi, has offered good feeling.

The aim of this Barcelona is to regain the strength to break back to Seville and achieve the twelfth Supercopa of Spain of its history, which would strengthen him as the team most capped gando this competition.

Euro Football Big Match: Italy vs Spain

Italy on the way to Spain. Again. As in the final of Euro 2012 or in the semifinal of the Confederations Cup 2013. But this time with a mind, is interpreted differently.

Italy wants back the old flavor of the past, one in which surrendered to Spain in the lead by more than outside the Red which dominate in the field. And the selection of Del Bosque, who suspected any flavor of confidence is shaken before a guessing game hard.

The protagonists of the final at the 2012 tournament, which Spain resolved with a spectacular 4-0, cited this time in the first round group stage after they overcame with the same six points but dismissing her with different feelings, because while Italian finished first, the Spaniards were defeated by Croatia who opened the door to doubts.


Planning a trip to Lens and contemplating a friendly route direct crossings, the team of Del Bosque was surprised by the Croatians with late goal that broke both schemes like tranquility and calm until around the locker room.

And it warned that days ago by Pedro tone output even public disgust provoked the coach did not fit squad Hispanic serenely a KO that changed his route and led Sunday to Paris.

If anything the difference between this team and that is that then a defense that frightened and immeasurable work, he added fantasy of Roberto Baggio, who with his goals came from behind in the second round to Nigeria, defeated in the last minute to Spain in the quarter and it was enough to beat Bulgaria in the semifinals before losing on penalties in the end (with failure Baggio) against Brazil.

Today Antonio Conte has at his command a footballer that marks differences that way. But for now, he has not needed ...

Euro 2016 Big Match: Belgium vs Hungary

Belgium, one of the nations that gathers most talented Euro recovered their self-esteem after having taken two consecutive wins on Sunday measured in Toulouse to Hungary devoid of stars, based on enthusiasm and collective work, has become in one of the surprises of the tournament.

If the Red Devils were originally one of the favorites, the constellation of stars who treasure and because they are the best European nation located in the FIFA rankings, no one had the Magyars lead a group in which coincided with Portugal.


The best example is Hazard, stringing and 637 minutes without scoring with the selection, but given the attendances of the last two many Belgians.

The Chelsea player, who attribute means a bad personal relationship with De Bruyne, is the great captain and from now, when parties are heads or tails, is expected to make a difference.

The coach has not guaranteed the presence of Mousa Dembélé and Yannick Carrasco, who dragged physical problems.

Belgium has broken certain euphoria, because his team has shown a good face and that after Hungary, a rival within reach, a quarter-final against Wales or Northern Ireland, two debutants in the competition appear.

Comfortably situated on the easy part of the picture, despite having been behind Italy in qualifying, Belgian and dream of the semifinals, although the coach insists on cooling the euphoria.

That superiority is precisely the best weapon of Hungarians, barely making a sound, led his group and presented in the second round as the scorer nation, with 6 goals, tied with Wales, and as a hard compact and solid team break.


Settled in a selection of experience, symbolized in his singular goalkeeper Gabor Kiraly and tracksuit, the oldest football competition, Hungary aims to reminiscing laurels and become a glorious generation.Hungary lacks a great scorer, but has achieved half of its many from outside the area.

The Belgians have never lost against Hungarians in competition and in their last match in the World Cup in Spain in 1982, a draw Alex Czerniatynski in the last minute of the match allowed the Red Devils past the first round at the expense of the Magyars.

The other official match was played in 1972, when the third, which ended with Belgian triumph played.

Slovakia vs Germany Euro Football 2016


Slovakia, with the figure of Marek Hamsik as the prime example of good football in the Central European group, try to surprise Germany to reach the quarterfinals of the European Championship, in which the box Joachim Loew has shown a deficiency that makes him imperfect: the lack of scoring.

Only three goals, Bastian work Schwenteiger, Mario Gomez and Shkodran Mustafi, appear in the statistics of the games he has played so far the German box. That's all the offensive baggage of a team that has lacked success in the last meters to show it's really scary.

But it could have the advantage that one of the key men in the German defense is definitely in the lineup by a sore one of her twins. Jerome Boateng, a possible low sensitive, could be replaced by Mustafi, although started in the premiere of Germany, then lost his place against Poland and Northern Ireland.

And besides, Bastian Schweinsteiger, has a distant chance to break through the headlines. Mario Götze in a low state of form, could be sacrificed. Andre Schurrle and Julian Draxler, also hope to grab his position.

Meanwhile, the men of Jan Kozak based almost all their chances in a team game with potential pecking Hamsik and, to a lesser extent, the other star of Vladimír Weiss. Between the two, they will try to surprise a few star-packed Slovakia does not have equipment.

Kozak's work can already be considered a success and now any good result achieved in the first Euro contesting, will be a gift. So far, it has managed to equal the feat of the 2010 World Cup, when Slovakia reached the knockout stages of the tournament.


Now, although the barrier of the quarterfinals seems almost unattainable, the Central European picture is not afraid of anyone and after completing a creditable group stage with a goalless draw against a powerful opponent like England and a victory 2- 1 against Russia with a goal by Hamsik.

He will be the highest representative of the Slovak optimism and is the player who most fear the Germans. The rest, no injuries, except Dusan Svento doubt, will be on the field. Peter Pekarik doubtful (will play with a protection for a broken nose), Tomas Hubocan, Robert Mak and Miroslav Stoch have recovered from different physical discomfort and be ready to try to surprise Germany.

Match of the Year: Barcelona vs Real Madrid

Real Madrid has the slogan to win it all and move to rival long next in La Liga, Barcelona, ​​as it will mean a new edition of the classic 'Spanish' to be played this Saturday (12:15 Peruvian time) at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium with the likely absence of Argentine striker Lionel Messi.

Real Madrid will arrive with all this party, since after the string of games that had, recover all that has been injured and have not left him complete the whole team. These highlight Gareth Bale 100%, Karim Benzema, Pepe, Marcelo, Dani Carvajal, and probably Luka Modric.

Ronaldo wants to 'destroy' at Barcelona since the last date, the white squad were defeated before its similar of Seville by 3 points to 2, which meant the return of James Rodriguez scored. Now before the 'Catalans' team 'merengue' he wants claimed.

The presence of James Rodríguez Real Madrid will have another weapon to attack status with the toughest opponent they may face in the Liga. Barcelona could take if obtiena differences victory at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Neymar is voiced to be the great figure of the Catalan team, plays and passes goal has been doing lately; however, the 'trump card' is the 'tip' Luis Suarez, who walks toned and you know what goal to give Real Madrid.

In the last meeting between both teams the result was favorable to those led by coach Luis Enrique, since the Catalan team won by 2 goals to 1 with a goal from striker Luis Suarez, who defined below Iker Casillas.

Moreover, at the Bernabeu it was a different thing, as Real Madrid beat the barza by 3 points to 1 in what could have meant a catastrophic landslide for dominance of the 'meringues' in his 'home'.


The Whites will look with great suspicion by the FIFA match date and the Russian World Cup Qualifying 2018, since often you have injured players such meetings. Barcelona will do the same with its leading figures.

Lionel Messi has trained normally and the disease is memory. However, his presence in the game is still doubt. Chances are that this expectation on the bench.
