The frill of the Barcelona, Yaya Touré, is afraid that the weariness begins affecting the team after the tie 1-1 with the Lyons for the eighth ones of end of the Champions League.
This party was the third consecutive one without winning for the leader of the League, which triumphed with his rivals in the first two thirds of the period.
In his last three duels, the Barcelona mended 2-0 to join two with the Real Betis; 2-1 fell down before the Espanyol; and it was equal with the Lyons 1-1.
“ It is the fatigue”, mentioned Touré after the party. “During 60 minutes we play against the Espanyol with a player less, and against the Lyons we knew that it would not be easy”.
The Barca has the most lethal attack in Europe, with 71 goals in 24 parties in the Spanish league this campaign, and 105 goals in all the competitions.
His trident of attack of Thierry Henry, Samuel Eto'o and Lionel Messi adds 51 reveilles in Spain and 66 in all the competitions, but against the Lyons only Henry could re-rock the networks.
“ We could have created more opportunities, but it is a good result like visitor”, said Touré.
The visitor's goal means that the Barca only needs a tie without goals to advance to the quarter finals.

With regard to Elevated place, it is a case still to be analyzed for the technical body. As for Kings, the Mexican says to take Rudis Corrales, Rodolfo Zelaya and Carlos Ayala as battering-rams.
Nevertheless, it is clear that the attack has been the big unknown of the Salvadoran selection.
Of the Cobos, on the other hand, he made sure that Miguel Montes, Juan José Gómez and Marvin González are the titular only ones undiscussed in the group of 23 players who will shape the payroll for the next date of the hexagonal one.
The Mexican will begin working with the stoppages from March 8. The party with the North Americans is 28 of the same month, and with Costa Rica on the 1st of April.
