Barcelona coach Hansi Flick expressed satisfaction with his team's 1-0 victory over Celta Vigo, a result that marks another significant step towards the league title. He emphasized that securing the three points was paramount, despite acknowledging room for improvement in his team's performance. The bad news for the "Blaugrana" was Lamine Yamal's injury, though the coach voiced hope that it wouldn't be too severe.

"We had to work hard today, but the most important thing is the three points. We suffered two injuries, which also affects the team, but in the second half, we didn't lose possession. We can do better, but I believe the goal at the end was a legitimate goal, not offside. I saw the picture of the offside... but the result is 1-0, and we look ahead to the next match," Flick stated.

He also commented on the injury sustained by star player Lamine Yamal.

"We need to see tomorrow what Lamine's condition is. We'll see. We have to accept it; it's a shame for us. I hope it's nothing too serious," the specialist added.

Following this, he assessed his team's performance in the match, admitting he wasn't entirely pleased.

"It wasn't easy. We didn't play a good game today; Celta played very well and pressed us. They created problems for us. In the second half, we were better. It wasn't easy to make the two substitutions because it changed our plan. The most important thing was to win the three points," the German coach concluded.
