Hansi Flick after removing from the Champions League
“I am disappointed, but not by the team's performance. They gave everything. We are eliminated, but next year we will try again and make the supporters and the whole club happy.
And the interul plays, it's a big team. Defend very well, have good attackers … I do not want to talk too much about the referee, but every decision they made, if it was 50-50, went in their favor.
We will learn from this match. It is a progress. We want to continue to learn. Now we don't have much time for workouts, but next season we will come back. We can be proud, I am proud of my team.
Now it is normal to be disappointed. Everyone is disappointed. We managed to return. I gave everything. Sometimes we feel that the result is unfair and there were some arbitration decisions. I want to thank the supporters who were here.
My team did an excellent job, they gave everything. I don't like talking about the referee. I told him what I think, but I won't say it here. We are eliminated, but we will return next year. When you see the last matches and this semifinal, this is the atmosphere we want. The team gave everything. We need to accept the result. We have been removed, but we go further.
The team and players deserve this respect. We play to win trophies and we want to win them. Now, in Laliga, we have a very difficult match. We have three days to prepare. Every player, when he looks in the mirror, can be proud of him. We will first analyze this match and then see what we will do. This is football, it is part of life – we cannot always win, ”said Hansi Flick, after the match, quoted by the brand.com.
