"After qualifying against Lyon, the hard work starts now. We can win it all, just as we can lose it all. We are going into a semi-final that will be tough against a top Barça side, against an institution. We can compare this team with the men's side 10-12 years ago. The team with Xavi, Iniesta, where there was a lot of mobility and lots of technical ability. I am full of admiration when I watch them play and to also see what Lluis Cortes has put in place with this team. It's really very interesting and I can't wait for the match on Sunday. I am also looking forward to seeing what my squad and my team will do against Barcelona. We will create danger too because we are more than capable of doing so. We have these capabilities, the qualities needed to go out and produce the performance we need and cause them problems."

"Barcelona are a very complete side. They have very capable forwards and are used to playing with a very high press. We have studied their style of playing, we are aware of their technical quality. We hope to be able to thwart their plans, while playing in the way we want to. It will be an intense match, but a balanced one and I hope the result will be a good one for us."
