Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Thu, 02/09/2012 - 23:54

Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola is excited about the prospect of a Copa del Rey final against Athletic Bilbao.

Guardiola believes the May date will prove a "marvellous spectacle".

He told fcbarcelona.cat: "We're very excited to play against Athletic. We're happy to have another final saved away. It's a final with the teams that have the most titles in the competition.

"I believe it will be fascinating, because I haven't seen a team that plays into space like Athletic. They will come for us, and we'll do the same.

"It'll be a beautiful final for spectators that will give prestige to the competition."
