Guardiola: Stopping Juninho free kicks key

The Brazilian stunned Barca early in the first leg of the last 16 tie in France with a trademark strike that sailed over goalkeeper Victor Valdes, before Thierry Henry equalised in the second half.

"It will be important not to give away free kicks around the box," Guardiola said at a news conference on the eve of Wednesday's return at the Nou Camp, adding that Barca would try to keep the ball in the Lyon half.
