"Is it very different playing against Real Madrid or Barcelona? Yes and no. You're always talking about top-level players who you know can pull off an upset at any moment."
"But I think there's much more order at Barcelona than at Real Madrid, who are more chaotic. But on the other hand, that makes Barcelona more predictable. We knew about the quality they had going in behind, you know that they are going to look for Lamine Yamal, for Rashford, playing diagonally. Ultimately, you know what their resources are, but the thing is many of the passes are inch-perfect."
Barcelona display greater tactical order and predictability compared with Real Madrid, which are described as more chaotic. Both teams possess top-level players capable of producing upsets at any moment. Barcelona frequently use diagonal passes behind defenses, specifically targeting Lamine Yamal and Rashford as primary attacking outlets. Many of those diagonal passes are described as inch-perfect, reinforcing Barcelona's attacking threat. The side’s order makes their actions more predictable defensively, while Real Madrid’s chaos presents a different challenge. Albacete pulled a goal back, but Barcelona progressed to the last four.
