Flick: We delivered a great first half, and this is my opinion on Jesús

Hans Flick, the head coach of FC Barcelona, spoke about his team's victory over Rayo Vallecano by a score of 5-2 in the match held at Spotify Camp Nou during the third round of LaLiga.

Flick said in his statements after the match: "In the first half, we played wonderfully, and we reacted well after conceding the goal, which was something that could have happened."

He added: "At our stadium, we need to control the game better and have more possession of the ball; this is our mentality. Some players tend to push forward and attack, but sometimes it is necessary to calm the pace of the game."

Regarding Rodri, the FC Barcelona coach said: "Rodri is here to control the game at certain moments, and he needs to improve because he has only been with us for a few days."

He continued: "We need to control the game more, because the opponent is very good and has many players who excel at finding spaces, and they are also good at set pieces."

Regarding Gabriel Jesus, Flick concluded his remarks by saying: "Gabriel is a top-class striker, and he can offer us a lot."
