In his words, Barça coach Hansi Flick described the 3-0 victory over Brest as “a very important victory” at the Estadi Lluís Companys. “We showed how strong we can be,” the Blaugranes coach added after picking up three points against the French club and moving to the top of the Champions League table.

“Our goal is to get into the top eight,” said Flick in his press conference after the victory over Éric Roy’s team. Nevertheless, the Barça coach admitted that there are still difficult games ahead of him, such as the next away game at Borussia Dortmund, but “we are prepared for anything,” the German added.

Before reflecting on the game against the Bundesliga club, the coach summarized his team’s performance against Brest. “We dominated the game and attacked and defended well. Pressing is part of our style and is a quick way to score. We did very well and are on the right track,” said Flick after the victory. All in all, there are a lot of positives for the coach and he admitted that “this win allows us to gain a bit of confidence” after two games without a win.

For the boss, Lewandowski and Pedri were “wonderful”. Flick also highlighted the performances of Gerard Martín and Marc Casadó, concluding: “We are all working hard and we have the right atmosphere to improve.”
