00:00I think it's good to let the players think about that, okay?
00:06I think it shows that they have the confidence, they believe in that, what we are doing.
00:11But my job is that, stay calm, stay calm and looking for the next match.
00:17Look, I'm surprised.
00:19Why do you despise Benfica?
00:21No, no, no, no, I don't despise Benfica, because Benfica is a great, historical team in Europe.
00:25And they won the Champions League before Barça.
00:28But going back to the statements we just heard, and I was going to ask Rodri,
00:33it surprises me a lot that Hansi Flick, knowing how young his dressing room is,
00:39says that he thinks it's good that they think, or that the mentality is to go for everything.
00:45It seems perfect to me that the mentality is winning in any type of dressing room.
00:50But in such a young Rodri, I would go more calmly.
00:54He's German, don't ask him to lie.
00:57He's German, don't ask him to lie.
00:59Besides, someone who has already won at least one World Cup.
01:03What are you going to say?
01:04That yes.
01:05Now, did Benfica put a cramp in the league?
01:07In that 5-4 that was crazy?
01:08Yes.
01:09Today, what Benfica did in the league, what Barcelona did at home,
01:12was a train for Barcelona to play.
01:15A 4-1, global.
01:17It went over Barcelona.
01:19As we expected.
01:20Benfica didn't exist.
01:21As we expected.
01:23Now, who is disrespecting Benfica?
01:25He said he was Benfica's friend, and now he's disrespecting Benfica.
01:29I'm telling the truth.
01:33Barcelona went over Benfica.
01:36As they should have, because Benfica is not a Champions League candidate.
01:39It's an Octavos candidate.
01:41It's an Octavos candidate, a fourth-place candidate, if it's up to Barcelona.
01:45Barcelona wasn't either, and now you see it.
01:47Of course, but Barcelona is a semi-finalist, at least for Benfica, right?
01:50I don't know.
01:51Benfica is not.
01:52Benfica is an encouraging team, like Porto.
01:55Not this year.
01:57But normally, they are teams to encourage the Champions League, to have a good time.
02:00And Benfica shows their players, then they go and sell them,
02:02like no other team in the world.
02:04They sell Benfica. That's Benfica.
02:05It surprises me a lot, Andres, that you say that Barça is in the quarterfinals and so on,
02:10when you've been counting the days to bring the cake.
02:13And I'm going to do it, of course.
02:14That it doesn't reach the quarterfinals of the maximum European competition.
02:17No, no, no, the cake is not for the quarterfinals, because I have to go to the semi-finals in 2019.
02:21Indeed. And they don't win it.
02:23And they don't win it.
02:24Yes, the cake, cake, pudding, or cake, is to celebrate the years without winning it.
02:30And if you've been ten years without winning Barça,
02:32do you still see it as a favorite against Benfica?
02:35Against Benfica?
02:36Against Benfica, yes.
02:37How many years has Benfica been without winning it?
02:39Ask Bela Guzman.
02:40Bela Guzman died and Benfica still hasn't won.
02:42How long has Barça been failing individually and collectively to reach the quarterfinals?
02:48But against rivals of this type, no.
02:49The issue with Barça was that either they didn't pass the group stage,
02:52or then they scored eight goals.
02:54When Bayern did that.
02:56Paris Saint-Germain, yes.
02:57And PSG, who had also been eliminated in the last season of Messi.
03:01So they really fell against better teams.
03:04Now that they are finally in a slightly better position, now they pass.
03:08And they are going to pass the next one again.
03:10I'm telling you, Barça is going to play against each other this year.
03:13We have to talk about a Barça that is ready to beat anyone in Europe.
03:17Anyone.
03:18They beat Bayern.
03:20They beat Real Madrid in the Clásico.
03:22Do you know what Barça has to do?
03:25I don't like comparisons.
03:27I really don't like comparisons.
03:29But what Minja Mal does is incredible.
03:34And what was seen yesterday against Minja Mal,
03:37and I repeat, I don't like comparisons,
03:40makes you think about Leo Messi at times.
03:45At times.
03:47Hansi Flick also talks about his players.
03:54No, great.
03:55So I think everyone is looking for this goal.
03:59And it's good to him.
04:01It has to give him self-confidence.
04:03I think it was at the right time that this goal happened.
04:08And I'm also happy for him to score again.
