Barcelona assistant manager Jordi Roura has said he always believed his side could produce the sort of comeback they did against AC Milan on Tuesday to progress into the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
The Catalans overturned a 2-0 deficit from the first-leg with a 4-0 demolition of the Italians and despite two recent defeats to Real Madrid, Roura claimed he never doubted they would find their form at just the right time.
“If anyone has believed in the team it has been me. I am perfectly conscious of what this team can do,” he told a press conference.
“On Tuesday we took an extraordinary step forward and I have never doubted this team. But this is football and sometimes there are things that go against you that make you better.”
