Eric Garcia responds after humiliation and promises a reaction against Atlético

King's Cup: Eric Garcia promises a Barça comeback against Atlético
Humiliated yesterday in the first leg of the King's Cup semi-final, FC Barcelona are determined to respond in the return match. Eric Garcia believes in it.
On Thursday evening, FC Barcelona were swept aside 4-0 by Atlético Madrid in the first leg of the King's Cup semi-final. The Catalan club will need a heroic performance in the return leg to qualify. Barça's central defender Eric Garcia, however, remains optimistic.
"There are still 90 minutes to play, we'll be at home, with our fans at Camp Nou, with players we will have back. I have no doubt that we can turn this around," said the Spanish international.
While he promises a Barça response, Eric Garcia, who was sent off late in the match, will miss the return leg on March 3.
