""It's about being able to neutralise their offside trap. It's very difficult because you don't have time to prepare for the match. That's why many teams struggle to do it, as the players have their set patterns and the things they've been working on all year.""
""Suddenly, a team comes along that plays in a completely different way and defends in a completely different way, and it's not easy for the team to automate certain movements in such a short space of time. We've worked on it.""
""I don't think they will be distracted. Besides, they had a tough time here last year. I think they'll want to put in a great performance. I can't imagine players of that calibre thinking about the next match.""
""Yes, always. Whichever team comes, I'm optimistic.""
Alessio Lisci, the Osasuna manager, discussed the challenges posed by Barcelona's defensive structure, particularly their high line and offside trap.

Lisci expressed confidence in his team's ability to exploit opportunities, referencing their previous encounter where they managed to catch Barcelona off guard. He also dismissed concerns about Barcelona's focus due to an upcoming El Clasico, believing they will perform at their best.
