In the 9th round of La Liga, Lewandowski scored a first-half hat-trick, ultimately helping Barcelona secure a 3-0 victory away against Alavés. After the match, Barcelona’s head coach Flick accepted an interview with the media.
Flick stated: “We did not make mistakes in the first half and did not allow Alavés to play their game, which was key to our victory. We told the team that it was very important to avoid making mistakes and remember the lessons from the match against Osasuna. The foundation of the victory was our excellent first-half performance. Lewandowski is the same player I knew in Munich, and he is the best inside the box.”
“Konrad did not play because he needed rest. We need to wait for the medical examination results of Ferran Torres. Hopefully, we can get our injured players back to full health. In the next two weeks, we will work hard and hope to come back in better shape.”
“I do not like comparing this current Barcelona team with the Bayern Munich team I coached; they are different teams, different situations. Currently, I am very happy, and both the team and staff are satisfied, but things might change in the future. We need to take it step by step, but the atmosphere in the locker room is the best.”
