Raphinha was praised by Hansi Flick after his hat-trick against Bayern Munich in the Champions League. The Brazilian, in great shape, will be expected again during the Clasico against Real Madrid.
Raphinha lit up the European scene with a hat-trick during FC Barcelona’s resounding victory against Bayern Munich (4-1) on Wednesday evening in the Champions League.
His coach, Hansi Flick, did not fail to praise the qualities of the Brazilian winger, calling him an exceptional player. “I’ve never had a player like him on any of my teams. With and without the ball, he is very good, he always starts the pressing and makes our chances materialize,”
he declared in the mixed zone.
Raphinha, captain and leader
Raphinha, in great form since the start of the season, seems to be flourishing in his role as captain, with already 9 goals scored in 13 matches in all competitions. He will be expected again during the Clasico against Real Madrid on Saturday in La Liga, where he should unsurprisingly appear in the starting lineup.
