Hansi-Flick spoke about the 3-0 victory over Aston Villa
In the 4th round of the UEFA Champions League league phase, Barcelona defeated England's Aston Villa club with a resounding 3-0 score at home. After the match, the Catalan club's head coach, Hansi-Flick, praised the defensive discipline and team unity in an interview with Barca Universal.
A brace from Raphinha and solid defense
The Catalans secured the crucial three points thanks to goals from Lamine Yamal and the in-form Raphinha Dias. However, the German specialist emphasized the team's clean sheet even more than the victory itself:
"I am really satisfied with how we defended against a strong opponent. The team played very compactly, and all the players actively participated in the defensive phase. That is the most important thing. We are proud. It is a very good result, but there is still a long way to go, and we must continue to improve."
