"It was a decision made to prepare for today's game. I've spoken with him, and he's fit,"
"One result doesn't change anything about our philosophy or our confidence in what we do."
Hansi Flick announced Barcelona's starting lineup for the Catalan derby at Estadi Montilivi with Raphinha reinstated after a hamstring recovery. Raphinha missed the previous three matches due to the injury but was placed on the left flank for kickoff. Flick confirmed that he had spoken with Raphinha and that the winger was fit to play from the start. Flick downplayed the impact of the recent 4-0 Copa del Rey semi-final defeat to Atletico Madrid, stating that one result would not change the team's philosophy or his confidence in the tactical approach, despite the high line being exposed.
