Gerard Pique is confident Barcelona is in strong mental shape to face Atletico Madrid despite its home loss to Real Madrid.
Barcelona defender Gerard Pique warned his teammates that their Champions League quarterfinal tie against Atletico Madrid will be even tougher than their 2-1 defeat at the hands of Real Madrid.
Cristiano Ronaldo netted a late goal to end the Catalans' 39-game unbeaten run on Saturday, but Pique insisted Barca remains high in confidence heading into Tuesday's encounter at Camp Nou, stressing the team does not need to use the loss in El Clasico as a wake-up call.
