Pinto: Barca not giving up yet
Posted Tuesday, January 31, 2012 by ESPN
Barcelona goalkeeper Jose Pinto has insisted that his team can bounce back to claim the La Liga title as long as they remain resolute.
The Catalans were held by a scoreless draw in last weekend's encounter with Villareal at El Madrigal, putting them seven points behind rivals and current league leaders Real Madrid.
Despite the odds, Pinto believes that the Blaugrana will be able to make a comeback in the remainder of the season.
"The message coming from the squad is one of faith and confidence. We have very little margin for error, but we're not giving anything up," Pinto told the club's official website.
"Challenges emerge every day, and that's good. We are excited about excelling ourselves and achieving every target we have. The squad has always shown that it can stay strong despite any setbacks. The team is optimistic.
"We aren't tired. We have good coaches and physios but it is hard for everything to work out perfectly every day. But the team is fully committed."
Barcelona will face off Valencia in their next Copa del Rey encounter on Wednesday.
