The Catalans had not won in their last three La Liga matches (against Real Sociedad, Celta Vigo and Las Palmas), but this bad series is over.
According to MD, Hansi Flick was delighted with the result, as well as the end of his Barcelona team’s poor run.
“In the first half we had many chances and we scored, but they equalized. We are happy. Scoring is very important for us. We created many chances but we missed them (against Las Palmas). This time I’m happy to have scored five goals. »
“I already warned that I was happy because this November shit is over and December has now started. »
Flick talks about Lewandowski
Flick also explained the decision to rest Robert Lewandowski, who was replaced by Barcelona teammate Ferran Torres from the start.
“Lewandowski needed to rest, he had to be taken care of. In addition, Ferran had a very good match and scored the first goal, it’s very important for him. Whenever we need him, he is there. Today there was no need to play with Lewandowski. »
