Sanchez returns for Spartak contest

FC Barcelona’s Chilean winger Alexis Sanchez has recovered from his thigh injury and will be in the squad for Wednesday’s Champions League match against Spartak Moscou. Emerging star Gerard Deulofeu, who made the bench for the Getafe match, has also been summoned from the B-team by Vilanova. However, new signing Jordi Alba has failed to recover from the flu and is certain to miss the match.
