FC Barcelona have a crucial match awaiting them as they face Real Madrid in the final of the Copa del Rey tomorrow on Saturday.
The Blaugranes have already announced the squad for this game, and the players named in this list have already left for Seville ahead of tomorrow’s game.
Robert Lewandowski, Alejandro Balde, Marc Casado, and Marc Bernal are the four players who were not a part of this list, as they are all still recovering from their injuries.
However, as earlier reported, these players are still going to be with the team for the final, in order to support their teammates who will take to the pitch in this crucial match.
These four players have not yet travelled to Seville for this purpose, but Mundo Deportivo reports that they will undertake this journey tomorrow and join the team ahead of the final.
Lewandowski had suffered an injury to the semitendinosus muscle of the left thigh in the match against Celta, and is still recovering from this problem. Similarly, Alejandro Balde also suffered a hamstring injury in the match against Leganes and will not be able to play tomorrow.
Marc Casado suffered a partial tear of the lateral muscle of the right knee in the last league game against Atletico Madrid. His colleague in the midfield, Marc Bernal, has been nursing an injury from even before that time, as he suffered an ACL tear and an associated injury to the external meniscus of the left knee in the third league game of the season against Rayo Vallecano.
Barcelona are enjoying a mood of optimism ahead of this crucial game against their arch-rivals, and their form definitely makes them the favourites in this game. However, tomorrow’s match is still going to be a highly exciting affair, and it remains to be seen which of these two sides will ultimately pick up the trophy.
