Barcelona striker Ferran Torres insists tomorrow's Champions League clash with Shakhtar Donetsk must be the focus.

Barca will meet Real Madrid this weekend in the first El Clasico of the season.

But Torres says: "Obviously we are having a lot of injuries and I am prepared to take that step forward, I feel very confident and prepared for whatever comes to me.

"The team is going to give everything even though we have played less than 48 hours ago. I hope to win but if we lose it wouldn't matter to me for the Clsico because a Clsico is a Clsico, but I'm sure that tomorrow we will win."

Ferran did not want to divert attention from the European duel.

"If something characterises elite football, it is that you can't think about the next games, you have to focus on the one at hand and try to get the three points and be closer to mathematical qualification for the Champions League."
