Laudrup tells Barcelona: No shame in guard of honour

Getafe coach Michael Laudrup says Barcelona's players should not be concerned about forming a guard of honour for Real Madrid's title-winning players ahead of tonight's clash.

Laudrup, who has played for both clubs, said: "The guard of honour is a recognition of the champion. The players do not have to give it much importance. It lasts four seconds. There's no humiliation, nothing."

On reports suggesting Pep Guardiola has won the Barca job ahead of him, Laudrup added: "I will not speak of my future. It does not matter to me what is going to happen there."
