"We must defend well and play as a block"
Jurado said that achieving a good result against FC Barcelona would be positive
José Manuel Jurado returns to the Camp Nou after a few years. The Andalusian midfielder, who has played several Madrid derbies throughout his career, will add a new experience this Sunday in the classic Barcelona. "We have been preparing the week like the rest throughout the season. Since the end of the game against Sporting we knew it was going to be complicated for what it implies, but we really want to play there", said Jurado. The white and blue player added that a derby is "special, there is rivalry and tension, although they are three points like those of other matches. We know it's very difficult to score there and win".
In this sense, one of the keys is to do "a good collective work". "The idea is like in the Calderón: to be together, that there are no pass lines and try to push".
The Andalusian midfielder said that hopefully Espanyol will be able to achieve "a positive result. Anything that adds up to a game like this is important". Jurado has indicated that it will be a difficult match "as in the Calderon" and he added that "we go with the idea of making a good game and achieve something positive”.
