Hansi Flick had one on his former employers, and was pleased with the performance of his side, as for AS Diary.
“The result and the three points… We think the game was great. After the first goal, we had ten or fifteen minutes in which it was a bit difficult. In the end it's good to see that the team recovers. We a young team and it's important to see that. We have a lot more potential. We try to do it in every game and improve the game, that's our goal.”
Raphinha was the star performer Barcelonaas he scored a hat-trick. However, Flick chose to talk specifically about Marc Casado, whose outstanding start to the season continued with another excellent performance.
“It's incredible. If you see him play now, if you know where he's coming from … and the level now, everything has improved. He's incredibly good in defense, even with the ball at his feet. This is Masia. I know very happy. Everyone sees the quality of these players. You can see in the second half when we combined and kept possession.
