Manchester City's Joe Hart: 'Overcoming Barcelona not an impossible task'

Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart believes that his side are capable of overturning their 2-0 deficit against Barcelona in the Champions League.

Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart believes that he and his teammates are capable of beating Barcelona to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

The North-West outfit head into Wednesday's encounter at Camp Nou with a 2-0 deficit from the first leg.

Despite having a mountain to climb, Hart has insisted that City have proven many times throughout the season that they can step up to the challenge.

"The tie is not over and we'll go into the game remembering what we've done this season and what we are capable of and I think that's how we have to look at it," Hart told the club's official website.

"A positive performance is key and a result would be fantastic, but we need to go out there and show we can really play against the likes of Barcelona.

"We've shown what we can do when we beat Bayern Munich away in December and while it's going to be tough, it's not impossible."

City head into the clash following their defeat to Wigan Athletic in the FA Cup quarter-final, while Barcelona will welcome the Premier League outfit after losing to Real Valladolid at the weekend.
