Barcelona manager, Hansi Flick said he does not feel the La Liga title has been won despite Sunday’s important 4-3 victory over Real Madrid.
The victory puts Barcelona seven points clear on the league table with three games left, needing just two points to claim the title.
It was Flick’s fourth straight win over their bitter rivals since arriving last summer.
Barcelona have scored 16 goals, an average of four per game, in those Clasico matches, a testament to Flick’s revolution of the team’s attack.
After Sunday’s game, the German tactician said, “I still don’t feel like a champion.
“We’re in a good place, yes. But we still need three points, and everyone wants to beat us. If we stay focused, we’ll get there.”
Flick was very impressed with 17-year-old Lamine Yamal, who put in another solid performance.
“He’s doing very well and believes in what he’s doing. He’s very smart. For me, the best thing is that after Tuesday, everyone was focused on today’s game. He helped us come back, and at 17 years old, he had a great game today,” he said.
On Pau Cubarsi, who was subbed off after experiencing discomfort, the manager said, “He had a stomach issue. But he told us he could go for another ten or fifteen minutes if needed.”
