Gary Neville to face Barcelona in Semi-final

- European champions Barcelona continue
their quest for a second consecutive treble when
Gary Neville's off-form Valencia visit the Camp Nou
in the first-leg of their Copa del Rey semi-final on
Wednesday.
Valencia's run to the last four of the Cup has been
the only positive of a difficult start for the England
coach in his first managerial role.
A first defeat at home in La Liga since November
2014, 1-0 against Sporting Gijon on Sunday, stretched
Neville's winless streak in La Liga to eight games and
left Valencia just five points above the relegation
zone.
Neville's men face the most daunting task possible if
they are to reach the final for the first time since
2008 against a Barca side that hasn't lost in 26
matches in all competitions.
However, Neville insists he is embracing the
challenge of returning to the scene of one of his
greatest triumphs where as a player he won the
Champions League with Manchester United back in
1999.
"I can't wait for Wednesday night, and I think the
players will be the same. These are the moments you
live for as a coach and a player," he said.
