Luis Enrique defends misfiring Munir, Sandro

Luis Enrique has defended youngsters Munir El Haddadi and Sandro Ramirez ahead of Barcelona's trip to Getafe on Saturday.

With Lionel Messi sidelined by a knee injury, both 20-year-olds have seen plenty of game-time in recent weeks, but neither has managed to convince so far.

"It does not concern me that Sandro and Munir have not scored yet," the Barcelona coach told a news conference.

"There is a big difference between getting some playing time when there is no pressure and when there is a lot of pressure to perform.

"They are getting valuable playing time under their belt, which is helping them develop. They have both been involved in some of the goals we have scored."

"Getafe are a complicated opponent. They are very strong in defence and have quality going forward," he said.

"Getafe always manage to make life hard for us."
