The Catalan giants are now 14 points (fourteen!) clear of Real Madrid with just four games left to play. Barca will be crowned champions if Madrid fail to beat Espanyol on Sunday, but Flick is not even going to bother watching that game.
“I won’t watch the game tomorrow. I don’t pay attention to these things,” he told reporters.
“The important thing was to win today, not what happens tomorrow. The important thing was to get the job done. We’ll see what happens tomorrow.
“If we win, we’ll celebrate. It doesn’t matter when we win, the important thing is to get the job done.”
Flick went on to admit that he’s likely to go and watch the famous magician El Mago Pop in Barcelona instead. “I think tomorrow is the last day,” he told reporters.
Barcelona had to grind out it out against Osasuna, with late goals from Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres sealing the win. Flick says his players are in good spirits after the victory.
“Very happy for the team, for the club, for the fans. It was a very difficult match, especially in the first half. The team is happy,” he added.
“The second half was better. The changes were because Gavi had a yellow card; with Rashford we were looking for speed.”
A second title now is within touching distance for Barca. Would you prefer to celebrate tomorrow night or next weekend in El Clasico?! Share your thoughts in the comments below!
