The Brazilian player Raphinha, from Barcelona, expressed his great happiness with his team's overwhelming 7-2 victory over Newcastle United in the second leg of the Champions League round of 16, highlighting the importance of the fans' support in this triumph.

Raphinha said, "We have experienced great nights before, but with this stand, it was the first time. With the fans' support like this, it's difficult for anyone to beat us at our home ground."

He continued: "Newcastle is a physically strong team, and if they are at their best, they make the match difficult for you. We were calm, we knew we had to control the game. In the first half, we lost many balls, but the fourth goal came quickly and helped us feel at ease."

Raphinha added: "I feel very happy, but without my teammates, none of this would be possible. I try to give my best for the team."

Regarding his colleague Eric Garcia, he said: "I can't say anything about Eric's situation."

He concluded his remarks by saying: "Now is the time to prepare for the match against Rayo, then the international games, and when we return from the break, we will focus on the upcoming matches."
