Barcelona dreaming of treble
Ferran Torres scored the only goal of the game at the Estadio Metropolitano, securing a 5-4 aggregate win that kept Barca in contention for all three trophies heading into the final stretch of the season.
The Catalan club currently leads LaLiga by three points with nine games remaining and will face Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League quarterfinals.
Barca has already claimed the Spanish Supercopa this year.
“It’s a good moment, but I am experienced, I know how fast it can change,” Flick said in his post-game news conference.
“Dreaming is allowed and we will work very hard and stay focused.”
“It’s a big dream for us to win titles. We have the first one [the Supercopa], but in the club they have a lot of space for more titles.”
Flick has a chance to lead Barca to its third treble, following triumphs in 2009 and 2015.
“Living in the present”
Barca and Real Madrid will clash in the Clásico showdown of the Copa del Rey final on April 26 at Estadio La Cartuja in Seville.
Despite the prospect of a treble, Flick is staying focused on the present.
Barca still have four league games to play, beginning with Real Betis at home on Saturday, before facing Dortmund in the Champions League.
“I am living in the present, not the past or the future,” he said.
That’s why I am not thinking about the final. If you ask about the final, I will say next match is Betis.”
“A Clásico, OK it’s great, but we have to play many games before then. For me, in my mind, it’s really behind all the other important things. For me, it’s not important now.”
