viagramof – German coach Hans Flick, Barcelona coach, spoke about the team’s defeat

Flick said in statements reported by: Catalan newspaper Sport“We could have scored the first goal, and then the game would have taken a different course.”

Barcelona coach continued: “We did not play the match at the speed we wanted in the first half, and we made a mistake and the opponent was able to score the first goal.”

He added: “Barcelona can play better, and we have 5 days to prepare for the Valencia match in the opening of the Spanish League.”

Flick added: “It is better to lose now than during the season. Losing 3-0 is not easy, but the atmosphere at Louis Companys was great.”

“I know what the team can do. We didn’t play our best in the game, we weren’t good, but in Valencia we will do things differently. I’m confident the team will perform differently.”

Flick praised Barcelona’s new player Dani Olmo, saying: “I know him from his days in the Bundesliga. He is a great player, and he can score goals and make a difference.”

Barcelona will play their first La Liga match against Valencia at Mestalla on Saturday.
