Last Tuesday Barcelona faced the English Liverpool, which advanced in the championship with two away goals with its 2-1 win in Barcelona two weeks ago.



Barcelona midfielder Deco was quoted as saying by sports daily Mundo Deportivo on Wednesday. "What are we going to do, shoot ourselves in the head? "Winning the Champions League last year didn't mean we would win it this one. We tried but now our obligation is to win the league."

Midfielder Xavi Hernandez said Barcelona still had two trophies to pursuit during the season. So far the Spanish champion is second in the league standings with 49 points, one fewer than Sevilla after 25 games, and has also reached the Copa del Rey semifinals so let's hope the team stays on track to a possible title win.
