Pundit Antonio Romero has slammed Barcelona coach Xavi's pre-match comments ahead of tonight's Copa del Rey semifinal against Real Madrid.
Real go to the Nou Camp in the second-leg of their Copa semi needing to overturn a 1-0 deficit.
Despite the aggregate score, Xavi has stated Real are favourites and Romero snapped: "It does not surprise me, he already did it in a previous one, because he repeated it several times.
"I think Xavi is allowed things that would not be allowed at Real Madrid but it sounds ridiculous. That the leader of LaLiga, who won the first leg, sit in front of an audience and say that Real Madrid is the favourite at the Camp Nou.
"I find it ridiculous and amazing. If that's what Ancelotti says, being a local, the next 50 questions are about that!"
