Pere Romeu, coach of the Barcelona women's team, expressed his pride in the collective performance of the team after the resounding 0-8 victory over the Danish Köge, which consolidates the position of the National Team in the group stage of the Women's Champions League. In a television interview, the coach highlighted that the result reflects the club's philosophy, where "they have seven different scorers, which shows that the team thinks about scoring collectively and not individually."
Barcelona maintains the lead in the competition table, with three points more than OL Lyon, Arsenal and Chelsea. Romeu pointed out that, although some losses have been committed that were not taken advantage of, they are minor details that can be polished in the next matches. “We are always looking to improve any imperfection,” said the coach, who recently received the Best Coach in the World award at the Ballon d'Or gala in London.
During the interview, the coach also praised the players Aïcha Camara and Renee van Asten, who have covered the defense in the absence of the injured Irene Paredes. “Irene is a leader in the aerial game and in defensive organization, but Renee and Aïcha have been at a good level,” Romeu commented. “We continue to compete game by game and we will give our best, regardless of the opponent.”
When asked about the statements of Real Madrid coach Pau Quesada, who assured that his team will win this season, Romeu responded concisely: “We will have opportunities during the season, whether they beat us or not.” The last time the two teams met, Barcelona beat Real Madrid 7‑0 in League F, a result that reinforces the coach's confidence in his squad.
With the Champions League in full swing, the Barcelona women's team will continue to seek to consolidate its dominance in the group and prepare the team for the upcoming international challenges. The next phase of the tournament is shaping up to be an opportunity for Barça to demonstrate their ability to score as a team and continue advancing in the competition.
