• Football: Barça does not stain the ball and will play the Cup final

Barcelona's coach, Ronald Koeman, was very proud of the team's evolution and how it has reconnected with the Catalans fans.

"You can already tell on the street. The people who talk to me are happy. Bad times have passed and the feeling I have is that people are with the team. We have worked hard to have this 'feeling' with the people. Hopefully in one day the field will be full again, to have the atmosphere and enjoy a night like the last one against Sevilla, "he said in the preview of the league game against Osasuna.

Koeman highlighted "the atmosphere of the team" that now "believes in itself" and smiles again: "The other day, when I saw the team celebrating the goals, even the substitutes, for me it was very important. That a dressing room is united is most importantly, it is a sign that I really liked ".

From the purely sporting aspect, the Dutch coach highlighted the defensive improvement.

"Lately it has changed that we have not made many individual errors. We have been able to press well on the contrary, and having three behind has given us a little more security. We have also improved the concentration from set pieces," he analyzed.

He also believes that several footballers have taken a step forward to not let Leo

Messi

carry all the weight in attack by himself: "It is very important to be more effective with other players. Not everything can depend on Leo. It is important that there are people who score goals and it's a good sign. "

On the elections: "I have no preferences"

Ronald Koeman hopes to continue seeing that progression in the team at El Sadar - "Osasuna is a strong opponent at home," he pointed out - in a game that he knows is key to taking advantage of what happens in the Madrid derby the following day.

"It is important to win, because we know that on Sunday there is an Atlético de Madrid-Real Madrid and that one or both of them are going to lose points. The first thing is our game. We must not forget that we have to win, and then the most important thing is that the team that goes up (Atlético) loses points, "he commented.

Shortly after the Madrid derby ends, the new president of FC Barcelona will be known.

Koeman, did not get wet about the result of the elections.

"In general, the three have done a good campaign. The phrases and words are to win votes, and it is normal. I do not have a preference. I do not know the three personally," he concluded.
