Thanks for this great fight tonight, as the first leg in Germany. I think we play good in 5-1 defensively. We were good on our fast breaks too. We got more problems in the second half and Flensburg fought until the end. We remained calm at the end and particularly during the last five minutes of the game. We have to keep this spirit and this state of mind. It’s important to have this type of experience for the future.

The first half, Gonzalo [Perez de Vargas] was amazing and kept us in the match. Our mistake in the first half was that we missed seven goals. In the second half both goalkeepers weren’t at the same level but we improved our defence.

We expect an extremely hard game. We won against them [Barça] at home so they are prepared for us. They were the champions last year — a team with huge quality and high confidence, so to win we have to be really good that night. We are ready from now and prepared for everything,

The players were nervous, it was not nice to watch this duel. Everyone knew that this match was 'all or nothing.' This is an important victory for us, for the club, for everyone.

Judging by the course of the game, we were better in one crucial element – defence. We started very aggressively, our opponents made mistakes in attack what we could use in fast breaks. Coach Talant could juggle with the squad. We had a good rhythm and Motor had problems with following us.
