Flick: This is the case of Koparsi, and we achieved our goal

Barcelona coach Hansi Flick appeared in a press conference, following the 5-2 victory over Red Star in the fourth round of the Champions League.

The coach said: “ Our goal is to win and get the three points. I am satisfied with the team. We played well with and without the ball. Even with the changes, the team was not affected, and this is really good for us.”

He added: “We want to continue this way, and we will do that throughout the season. Competition in the team is good, and everyone wants to play at the highest level. This team loves competing against the best teams.”

He continued: “Replacing Lewandowski, who reached 99 goals in the Champions League? If I had known that before, I probably would not have replaced him. It was my fault that he did not reach 100 goals today (laughs). He helped us a lot by scoring two goals.”

He stressed: “The results we are achieving are very good, and we want to give our best in every match. I am very happy with the team’s performance. The players are adapting very well to the game plan.” We have a young team that needs to develop, and we do that in every match.”

He added: “What we do is focus very hard on every match, you can see that. They are doing a great job according to the game plan we have set. And they realize that on the field. I am happy with the team’s performance.”

He noted: “Kobarsi received 10 stitches in his face, but that’s okay. He will recover, as he is still young.” There is nothing dangerous, everything is fine. Frenkie de Jong did a great job today. There was good communication between defense and attack.”

He concluded: “We had A lot of control and possession today. I was very happy about that because that was important. When Red Star had the ball it was difficult to defend against them, so in the end, I think our goal today was to put pressure on them, to prevent them from playing, and we did that well." .
