Joyful Hansi Flick Eyes Treble After Barcelona Edges Real Madrid In Copa del Rey

‎Barcelona manager, Hansi Flick, expressed his delight after his team staged a thrilling comeback to secure a 3-2 victory in extra time against Real Madrid, winning the Copa del Rey title on Saturday.

‎He praised his players for their heroics and encouraged them to celebrate this significant achievement.

‎Flick emphasized that they should enjoy their record-extending 32nd Spanish Cup title without worrying about the looming Champions League semi-finals against Inter Milan.

‎”It has been a simply perfect night,” Flick told a press conference in the early hours of Sunday.

‎”I am very proud. For me, it’s amazing what they are doing and how they fight. I really appreciate what they do and that they never give up. I think everyone, the club, and the fans, are proud of this team.

‎”To win a title in a game like the Clasico against Real Madrid is always special. I’m happy for my players and for the thousands of fans who were in the stands, they deserved this title.

‎”Now we must celebrate, and then the objective must be to recover, recover, and recover. The treble is an option, but we have to keep working.”

‎Barcelona, in impressive form, achieved their third straight win against a struggling Real Madrid, who have already lost 4-0 at the Santiago Bernabéu in La Liga and 5-2 in the Spanish Super Cup final this season.

‎The Blaugranas have been unbeaten in domestic competitions since late December, playing some of the best football in Europe. With their current performance, they are well-positioned to secure the Spanish league title.

‎Barcelona sits at the top of La Liga with 76 points, four ahead of Real Madrid. After their Champions League match against Inter on Wednesday, they will take on last-placed Valladolid before hosting Real in a La Liga clash that could determine the league title on May 11.

‎Hansi Flick credited his team’s success to their strong attitude and unwavering focus, stating that the sky’s the limit if they remain grounded.

‎”At the beginning of the season I said I was here, with my assistants, to create a good atmosphere in the dressing room,” Flick said.

‎”I wanted to show them they could enjoy the game and that they could play at the highest level. I think creating that atmosphere in the dressing room is important and key.

‎”It gives a lot of confidence. This is a matter for everybody. The staff, the players… They have a fantastic mentality. If you look at how they came back from the game, the ability to think positively to turn it around…”
