Barcelona defeated Benfica 5-4, and coach Hansi Flick admitted that he had never experienced such a shocking reversal.
After 70 minutes of the game, Barcelona was trailing 2-4, but in the final moments of the game, Rafael Diaz Belloli scored the winning goal, helping the team complete a thrilling reversal.
In the post-match interview, Flick shared his thoughts on the game, saying: "It was a very crazy game, the most positive point was our mentality. We turned the game around, which is amazing. This is football and this is why we love it."
"I don't think I've ever experienced such a stunning comeback, it's incredible. Our performance in the first half was not ideal, the opponent was very strong and scored first. In the second half we performed better, and the substitutions helped us a lot."
When the reporter mentioned the mistake made by Barcelona goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny in the first half, which led to Benfica scoring two goals, Flick did not blame Szczesny and still supported him. Flick said: "Which player has not made mistakes? This is normal."
"Szczesny made some mistakes but all the players made mistakes in the first half. We win together and we lose together. We are a team. I liked the performance in the second half, he saved a goal from Benfica."
Currently, Barcelona is ranked second in the Champions League with 6 wins and 1 loss, and has confirmed that it can advance to the Champions League quarterfinals. Barcelona's next Champions League game will be on January 30, at home against Atalanta.
