Barcelona manager Hansi Flick made important comments at a press conference on the club's official website ahead of the team's Round 11 home match the next day. At the beginning of the press conference, he expressed his condolences over the train collision that occurred in the Toledo province in central Spain, and said, ``We are with you'' for the victims and their families. "I would like to express my deepest condolences and send all my positive energy and love," Flick said, expressing the entire team's thoughts and support for the victims of this tragedy.
At the same press conference, Flick also touched on the team's recent results. Barcelona lost 4-2 in the European Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain on the 20th, and their winning streak in all competitions since the start of the season was limited to 11 straight. Furthermore, on the 25th, they lost 1-2 to Real Madrid in El Clasico, their second consecutive loss. In the league, second-placed Atletico Madrid are two points behind, and third-placed Real Madrid are closing in with a three-point difference.
Flick said, ``We still have a long way to go until the end of the season to win the title,'' and while accepting the defeat, he calmly commented, ``We have to handle it well and learn.'' He also clarified that ``the most important thing is to win'' ahead of the match against Alaves the next day, underscoring the momentum and confidence his team showed in practice. ``We are Barça and we have to prove it tomorrow,'' Flick said, showing a positive attitude.
Looking ahead, Barcelona will be aiming for a victory against Alaves as the competition for places in the league intensifies. Mr. Flick believes in the team's ability and mentality, and has instructed them to recover from the loss and focus on playing while remembering the victims of the tragedy. It will be interesting to see how the results of the next match will affect Barcelona's fight for the league title.
