Barcelona star aware of Manchester United’s tact

Barcelona face Manchester United in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday 10th April with Sergio Busquets revealing that their opponents pose a threat from set-pieces and counter-attacks.

Barcelona come into the game bang on form having not lost a single game since January 23, winning 11 and drawing five of their last 16 matches, while United, although their overall record since Solskjaer took charge in December is superb, have lost three of their last four games. United will have to muster another improbable result as they did against Paris Saint Germain in order to secure a place in the final four. 

Busquets revealed that United pose a threat with their counters and set-pieces, “United are better now under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. They don’t mind letting you have the ball because they sometimes know that the other side are technically better. As we saw against PSG they take advantage of their counter-attacks and their set-pieces. If you make any mistakes, they capitalize.”
