Iniesta: Barca win obligatory

Andres Iniesta has conceded Barcelona are obliged to win their Group F Champions League game against Ajax on Tuesday night.

The Catalans were beaten 3-2 by Paris Saint-Germain three weeks ago, having defeated APOEL 1-0 in the opening group fixture, and Iniesta is aware the game against the Dutch outfit has taken on extra significance.

“Ajax are a team like us that enjoys having a lot of the ball, so I’m sure that will require us to be very focused.

“Their boss [Frank de Boer] was also a stylish player and in that sense I think he has put his stamp on the team.

“The defeat in Paris obliges us all the more to try and get a win,” the 30-year-old told La 1.
