“I think we played very well, but we still have a game to go … we always want to play our football and we want to play it there and we will win,” said Lewandowski to Movistar.
Flick warned his team that the job was not yet done.
“You never know what’s going to happen, football is a crazy sport, we have to play like today,” he said.
The trainer selected his typical page with just one decision – he chose Fermin Lopez over Gavi to attack the midfield to support the dynamic striker trio.
The leaders of La Liga, Barcelona, took control from the start and opened the rating after 25 minutes.
Lopez whipped a free kick to the rear post, and Inigo Martinez nodded with the ball towards Paubersi, who turned him into a goal.
The efforts of the young defender defeated Gregor Kobel and set off on the line before the top scorer of the tournament, Raphinha, entered to ensure that he claimed his 12th goal.
The Brazilian winger was nervous, while Var worked on confirming that his strike was on the side.
“I was concerned about the first goal when I was offside, it is good that it was valid,” said Raphinha.
“I touched the ball in front of the line and apologized to Cubarsi. He told me I shouldn’t worry, he would count it as support.”
Serhou Guirassy has postponed a few great chances for visitors before the break.
With Dortmund’s first Slick attack movement of the game, the striker, who scored 10 goals in the competition, was recorded, but with only Wojciech Szczesny to defeat a cushible ball.
– ‘simple mistake’ – –

Yamal cut a cross to Raphinha, who was looking for a header on the long post to Lewandowski, to nod home from practically under the crossbar three minutes after the interval.
Lopez hit the post and whipped over centimeters when Barcelona searched for a third to kill the draw. It arrived after 66 minutes, with Lopez Lewandowski bored on the way home on the close -up.
This was the 29th goal of the former Dortmund striker in 28 games against his old club and his 99th in a Barcelona shirt since his connection in 2022.
“I am very happy, 99 goals for the club,” added Lewandowski.
“In my head I not only won, but helped the team with my qualities and goals.
“I think strikers always have to think about goals.”
Yamal, who had played with Dortmund’s defense all night, rightly climbed the goal ship when the visitors were wide open and Raphinha sent the youngster into the goal.
The only concern for Barca was Yamal to be replaced in the last phase, even though he smiled when he was granted an ovation.
“He’s fine, he had played too many minutes (lately),” said Flick.
Barca is striving for a potential four times this season and you will prove some of them.
Dortmund licked her wounds.
“We weren’t related enough, and we also made simple mistakes – at this level they are punished hard,” Emre from Dortmund said to DAZN.
“I think we can do it better, even if (the Barca attackers) are so good, I know.”
