“I love him” – after Barcelona’s 98th minute winner, Flick welcomes Rafina


Hansifrik welcomed Rafina after the Brazilian scored two goals as Barcelona beat Celta Vigo on Saturday to clear seven points at the top of the La Liga.

Rafina converted a 98-minute penalty as Flick’s side avoided the almighty horror after a 4-3 victory at the company of Estadiolick LLUIS from 3-1.

Ferran Torres gave Barca the lead 12 minutes later, but Borja Iglesias returned for the visitors just three minutes later.

Iglesias added two more goals after the break and completed the hat trick with the table topper.

Daniormo then pulled back one after five minutes before Rafinha leveled the score.

The hosts had to settle for the point, but seemed to have to settle deeply into the second half of the stoppage time. Barcelona was awarded a spot kick.

However, striker Robert Lewandowski had been previously kicked out with an injury that would remove him from both the final showdown of Copa del Rey against Real Madrid next weekend and the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals with Inter.

However, the Barca boss continued to feel positive after the match.

“When you win, you like these games,” Flick said.

“We played against a good team and said that at a press conference yesterday. They have a clear idea of ​​what they want from this coach.”

“I think everyone can see that the team didn’t give up, did their best for 90 minutes and scored three points.”

Speaking of his match winner, Flick was filled with praise. “Rafinya is very important. I love him.

“I told him halftime. He then gave a great performance.”

With six league games still remaining, Barcelona sits quite comfortably at the top of the table. But Real Madrid has a game.

Los Blancos will host a fresh athletic Bilbao from their Europa League quarterfinal victory against the Rangers on Thursday at the Bernabéu.
