Throwing caution to the wind, in part, is what has brought Flick's Barcelona as far as they have come. Expectations surely have been surpassed if you look back to the day he arrived in the summer of 2024. That approach, however, may be the thing that makes life difficult in the Champions League, the biggest competition of them all.
We will come back. We need to start from the beginning [of games]. When you see Atlético players, they had more will, more hunger. And this is what I want from the first minute. We didn't show that in the first half.
Following the Club's decision to terminate its relationship with the European Super League Company and to formally submit its application for re-admission, the EFC Board has unanimously approved the reincorporation of FC Barcelona, in accordance with its Statutes.
From his position on the visiting bench, Flick was convinced that Cubarsi was not offside. He saw the goal as legal from the outset and celebrated it in a restrained but angry manner, because he was certain it could mark a turning point in the match. As such, he did not understand anything when VAR intervened. Moreover, he was confused by the embarrassing delay of seven minutes for the decision to be made, which completely broke the Catalans' momentum after the half-time interval.
Barcelona midfielder Gavi has offered an exciting update as he takes another step closer to making his long-awaited recovery from injury. Barcelona have been hoping he can be available again either in February or March, and he's now offered an update on social media. Gavi posted a video of himself on the training ground with the caption: "What a feeling to train with the ball after such a long time."
It's indescribable, what I'm feeling is incredible. I was talking about it with my teammates, it's spectacular. It's a dream come true. It's hard to get on the pitch because the score has to be comfortable. When they scored the third, Flick called me over and I didn't even have time to think. My day has arrived.
