Hans Flick, the head coach of Barcelona, spoke before the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final against Atletico Madrid at the Metropolitano Stadium, emphasizing the importance of focus and teamwork to achieve the goal.

Flick said, "We need to focus on delivering a good performance first, not just on the result, because when we play well, we are capable of scoring goals and achieving what we want."

He added, "I expect a completely different match due to the atmosphere of the stadium. It will be tough, but I believe in my team. We need strong defense, to be brave in attack, press, and seize opportunities."

He said about the tactical aspects: "Lamine Yamal has been performing excellently lately, and he is one of the best players in one-on-one situations. We need to support him and give him opportunities, but the most important thing is to play as a team, as that is the key to the match."

He continued: "Mentality and behavior are extremely important elements. The relationship between the fans and the players has been amazing recently, and this gives the team a big boost. We must believe in our ability to win, and I believe we are on the right track."

He added: "Frenkie de Jong is in better shape than Bernal and might start. We will make the final decision this evening."

He continued about Gavi: "Gavi can definitely play; he is a player who gives everything for the team and fears nothing on the field, which is very positive. We will decide if he will start after training."

He said about the importance of the match: "It's not a final, but it's different. We want to win, and that is our goal for tomorrow. We must believe in that and be at the peak of our focus."

He added: "I am calm about the refereeing; the referee has a lot of experience and I have no doubts."

He continued: "The most important thing will be to press them; if we don't press, they will move the ball well, and it's not easy to defend against them. There must be strong cohesion among our players. As I said before, some matches are decided by small details, like a red card, a refereeing decision, or a crucial save. We'll see if these details will work in our favor."

Regarding Fermín López's participation, he said, "Yes, it's possible for him to start; that's a viable option."

He concluded his remarks by saying: "I'm not worried, this is our style of play. We can defend better, but it all depends on the team. All players must participate and communicate with each other, and defend as a single unit. When we don't have the ball, we need to close down spaces and play more compactly. This is the way we want to play football. We have performed excellently in many situations, and we are capable of scoring goals."
