Flick: “We Are Extremely Happy with the Result”

Barcelona's manager Hansi Flick expressed his satisfaction after his side’s convincing 4-1 victory over Galatasaray in the second round of the Champions League league phase. The coach praised Lamine Yamal, who produced an outstanding performance in the second half and played a key role in the team’s goals.

Here is what Hansi Flick said after the match:

“We are extremely happy with the result. We also played solidly in the first half. Our opponents took advantage of their only good chance and scored, but we managed to respond and turn the game around, which was hugely important.

“I think that in the Champions League, even when we dictate the play, there are moments when we do not make the right decisions in the final third. That is something we need to improve. Playing at a stadium like this, in such a heated atmosphere, was not easy at all, so I am really pleased.

“Lamine did not score today, but he provided the final pass for two of the goals and played brilliantly. He is an incredible footballer and extremely important to us. Physically, he is in excellent condition. He is a decisive player, and having him on the pitch is always a benefit to the team.”

“Everything we said stays in the dressing room,” Flick said when asked about the instructions he gave the players at half-time.
