“The how is a consequence of how we are working lately. We come from a difficult time but this is a very important blow to a rival who has just eliminated PSG. Winning 0-4 and it could have been broader… The group deserved. A very important victory, for the rival, and there are 9 games left and you have to work with humility, and a lot of work”.
“We continue in this positive trend, winning and with goals. When you win like this it is a very positive dynamic that is a reality. And that is why we are very satisfied. A group is being made, and this costs a lot. I speak from experience, but little little by little we can approach the best time”.
“The mission is to recover our identity and this will take us to the top. This is how it always was and it will not change. Barça has a way of playing and a philosophy and that is what has made Barça great. It has become clear, if we do we are used to doing, the titles will come. LaLiga is difficult but they are letting us dream and dreaming is free. We have to do our part and see what happens”.
“I don’t need any glory, it’s better for the players and Barcelona in general to have it. It’s a group victory, a team victory, a family victory. I want glory for the Barça family. I’m here for that”.
“I have not been angry for not reaching the fifth but because that loss with 0-1 or 0-2 can cost the victory. Losing balls makes me angry, they can be lost but not because of relaxation or in the middle of the field. If there is no demand There are no results. The first part was excellent and the second part could have been played better in the last section”.
“We were looking for the backs of the interiors of Madrid. I have asked them that it was a game of personality, of courage, of not losing silly balls. And we have reinforced them with transitions with Araujo defending Vinicius. Good in the pressure, recovering balls on the field rival, many occasions… We have been much superior and we could have scored more goals”.
“If Barça has returned, I’ll leave it to you. But yes, this is the idea and the game model to compete. We have very good players and they enjoy themselves on the pitch. And I would highlight how they work, how they help the team and we are a family very good in the locker room and it’s very important. We’ve told ourselves that you can compete in this way”.
“I’m very proud and happy. Barcelona fans have to enjoy it because lately we haven’t had much joy, especially in the Clásicos. We’ve been much better at the Bernabéu. Playing like this we can compete with anyone”.
“I was prepared to play as a winger, where I have to do my best. I’m a defender, and I help where the coach needs me. We knew it would be difficult with Vinicius but I trust my characteristics and the coach’s decision turned out well”.
“We quite enjoyed it. It was very nice and it was very important to continue growing and what we worked on during the week came out, the videos…”
“A victory that is a blow to the table as well, and it means that we can. With humility because there is a lot left.”
“We didn’t expect to be so superior at their stadium. They’ve had a rest week and we arrived from Turkey on Friday. We played a spectacular game and I leave very satisfied”.
“We have been far superior to Madrid, in the game and the result and we leave with tremendous satisfaction and a smile from ear to ear. To continue working is not a title. We must continue with all the humility in the world. We celebrate it today and now awaiting Sevilla and the Europa League”.
“If we have the slightest chance, we’re going to go for it and take advantage of it. It’s very difficult, but anything can happen in football. And if you drop points… First you have to get second, but we have to think about winning titles and in high goals, we are Barça”.
