FC Barcelona: Hansi Flick believes in a comeback against Atlético Madrid

In Monday’s press conference, Hansi Flick expressed his belief in FC Barcelona’s ability to stage a comeback against Atlético Madrid tomorrow night in the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final.

In the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final, Barça was swept aside (4-0). Tomorrow, the Catalans will host Atlético Madrid for the decisive return leg. Speaking to the media on Monday, Blaugrana coach Hans-Dieter Flick struck an optimistic tone.

“You always have to believe, of course. All the fans in the stadium will be supporting us. We have a good example against Dortmund (4-0 last year, editor’s note). We need to score two goals in each half. We know it will be tough because the opponent is fantastic and really hurt us in the last match, but I think we can do it. The comeback against PSG in 2017? I don’t think about the past or the future, only the present. We know the history, but our job is to get things right on Tuesday. (…) I’ve never found myself in such a situation, but it doesn’t scare me,” admitted the German manager.
