"We created a lot of chances, but if we're honest, Girona created a lot in the first half. The next few games are very important for us, and we need Pedri to be fresh; he's incredibly important for the team. We have to manage the minutes of players like that, including Lamine."
"I'm very happy for Araujo. His attitude always plays, what he gives to this club and this team. He can play in that position at certain times. I asked him before he came on if he could play there and he said yes."
"Football is all about emotions. For me, it was fantastic to score the second goal. It wasn't made for anyone or anything. It's the tension. It wasn't aimed at anyone."
Ronald Araujo came on as a substitute and scored the second goal to secure the win. Flick called it a fantastic match and emphasized the importance of earning three points to build confidence for the future. Barcelona created many chances while Girona posed significant threats in the first half. Flick highlighted the need to keep Pedri fresh and manage minutes for key players, including Lamine.
