Speaking of Barca's Mexican rivals Atlante, Marquez admitted that he does not follow teams from his home country very closely, but proferred: "They are a very complete team with a good structure as well as skilled players."

The two sides face off in Abu Dhabi today at 17:00 CET (20:00 local), with the winners meeting Estudiantes in Sunday's final.
