Hans Flick, the coach of Barcelona, spoke about his team's 1-0 victory over Celta Vigo in the 33rd round of the Spanish League, emphasizing the difficulty of the match and the importance of securing the three points in the race for the title.

Flick said, 'We are happy, we suffered a lot because Celta plays very well.'

He continued, 'The first half was difficult and different from what we expected, but the most important thing is to get the three points. Additionally, we had two injuries, we fought together as a team, and we can be better because we have the quality.'

He added, 'I think Ferran's goal is valid, not offside, and I would like to get an explanation. In the end, the match ended 1-0, and we have to focus on the next match.'

Flick continued his statements by saying, 'We have to wait until tomorrow to see what Lamine is suffering from, it's unfortunate, and the same goes for Cancelo.'

Regarding Lamine Yamal's morale, he said, 'He is injured, but we have to wait to know the duration of his absence. He felt something, we have to wait until tomorrow. I think about all the injured players, I am worried about them, I have been injured myself and know the feeling, but we have to focus now on the upcoming matches.'

He confirmed, 'I'm not saying I'm worried, but I have a lot on my mind, we didn't play well, I don't understand why Ferran's goal was considered offside, that's what worries me, we have to play much better, we had clear chances, they almost scored a goal a minute before the end of the match, we have to play smart, we played as one team in a match that wasn't easy, and it was against a strong team.'

About the forced substitutions he made due to injuries: 'It wasn't easy, we didn't play a great match, and Celta pressed us hard, then these two substitutions came, and they changed our game plan in the second half, we were better, I am happy with the three points.'
