The head coach of “Benfica”, Bruno Lage, spoke about the team’s readiness for the return match of the Round of 16 of the Champions League against “Barcelona”.
— “Barcelona” has many players of very high quality, especially in the attacking trio, although in the last match, goalkeeper Szczesny also made an impact. They have a coach who does an incredible job and has already won the Champions League. “Barcelona” is a team that has not lost yet in 2025.
“Benfica” is preparing just like for the two previous matches against “Barcelona”. We need to be confident and believe that we can achieve a good result here. We have to play relaxed, sticking to our style of football, and through this, try to achieve a positive result,” quoted Lage, according to the UEFA press service.
