Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola has urged his players to fight through jet lag and become world champions for a second time at the Club World Cup in Japan this week.

The Spanish glamour side arrived in Yokohama late Sunday night having boarded a flight immediately after beating archrival Real Madrid 3-1 in the Spanish League on Saturday, with little time to acclimatize before Thursday's semifinal against Al Sadd of Qatar at Nissan Stadium.

Guardiola is confident his squad of world-famous players has the experience to cope with whatever the schedule throws at them, but the 40-year-old is making sure no one takes the competition lightly with the chance to regain the title the club won in 2009 within reach.
