🎙| #MallorcaBarça | Xavi: “We were very good in the first half but in the second half they managed to put us under pressure but fortunately Ter-Stegen saved us. I’m very happy with MATS and Luuk’s game.” #fcblive
Xavi: “I’m very excited about how the team played, especially because of all the COVID cases we’ve had. We managed to force our way into the game, especially in the first half.”
Xavi: “We asked them to postpone the game, but they refused and in spite of everything we won. This is a golden opportunity to get where we want to go, and it’s first of all to qualify for the #UCL next year, we are only one point away.”
Xavi: “This victory is worth a lot to me, it gives a boost to our ideas, it is a very precious victory. We are a group, a family.”
Xavi: “Luuk is a professional, he’s an example to the other players, he does not get many minutes, but he works hard. Certainly I consider him a useful player, today he has proven it, he does an outstanding job. We’ll see what happens in the future.”
Xavi: “Riqui, Oscar and Jutgla, they all played great today, it excites me to see them play. We must continue on this path, we must continue to show ability as we showed in the first half.”
