Eto'o puts pressure on Real
Published in FilGoal on 30 - 04 - 2009

Barcelona striker Samuel Eto'o said Real Madrid will be under a lot of pressure when they take on his team in the Spanish Classico at Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday.
Barca are currently leading the Primera Liga table with 82 points, four ahead of Real, and the game will be Los Merengues' last opportunity to catch the Catalans.
"For us, the league is not determined at the Bernabeu, but for Madrid, this is their last chance to try and overtake us at the top," Eto'o told TV3.
"If we win, it will be a huge blow to them. We still have two other games at home and with the help of our fans, it's difficult to lose."
Both teams have five games to go, and Eto'o is confident that his team can seal the title with a win in Madrid.
"We go to the Bernabeu with a four-point margin but Real are convinced that we will leave with just a one-point advantage.

"But I wouldn't write us off, I think we look good for a 1-0 win and that will be enough," the Cameroon star confirmed.
Barca Future
The former Real Mallorca hitman, whose contract at Barcelona expires at the end of the season, concluded that he will not be leaving Nou Camp in the summer.
"My future is with Barca. If I wasn't happy where, I would already have told President Joan Laporta," he added.
"But now is not the time to talk about wages or whether I will stay on for another five or six years. We will sit and talk when the season finished and everything goes well."
Eto'o is currently La Liga's top scorer with 26 goals.
