Diego Godin, Atletico Madrid's Uruguayan centre-back, is ready to do battle with Barcelona at Camp Nou on Wednesday. Godin has always been a key figure for the Rojiblancos in their battles with Barcelona and he spoke about the game after Atletico thrashed Sporting Gijon 5-0.

"We will have to give 120 per cent concentration because they have very good players. We know the quality Barcelona have and they have shown it over many years. They have a lot of quality up front, a great defence."

He also spoke about Atletico's win. "Gameiro and Griezmann had a great start and then Torres came from the bench and he was buzzing too. This speaks well of our commitment and how well everyone is."

 

Godin added: "Barcelona are a great opponent, it's very hard at their stadium, so we are preparing ourselves, resting well, and we will see what we can do at Camp Nou."
