❌ Barrios not in the squad to face Barcelona
Simeone has revealed his players for tonight’s battle at the Metropolitano, and there are more surprises.
Simeone has several defensive absences ahead of tonight’s quarter-final second leg against Barcelona. Pubill, Giménez and Hancko are all left out of the squad, which also does not include Pablo Barrios, who ultimately was not fit in time.
As for the good news, Oblak’s return stands out, and it is now up to Cholo whether to give him the starting spot in goal or continue trusting Musso in the most important match of the season so far, with Sunday’s cup final still to come.
