Luis Enrique: “We showed that we can play with and without the ball.”
How does this performance rank in your career?
I don’t know, but I can say it was an intense match between two teams that played very good football. It’s an honor to play against this Liverpool side, led by Arne Slot, at Anfield. I can say that the first half was mostly in our favor; we had several chances to score. The second half was a different story. We suffered a lot; they pressed a lot and took risks. But we managed to score two goals.
Did you show your defensive strength?
If you want to win this kind of match, you have to defend as a team and with intensity. Today, we showed that we can play with and without the ball.
So you’re stronger than last year?
It’s a different story. Last season, everyone thought we couldn’t do it because we were so young. This season, we’re the champions. But we still want to grow; that’s the goal.
