The head coach of "Barcelona," Hans-Dieter Flick, commented on his team’s exit from the Champions League after losing to "Inter" in the second leg of the semifinals.
"I understand that everyone is disappointed right now. We put a lot on this match. But I myself am proud of the team. We gave everything we had to the game. Next season we will return and try to win the Champions League. When you witness such an atmosphere as there was today at the stadium, you definitely want to come back.
We have to accept the final score. "Inter" has strong and experienced attackers. We have a young team, and we will continue to progress. Our task is to make this team better and better. We can improve not only in defense but also in attack. Overall, the defeat was very painful, but we have to take this blow. This is what I want to say to all the players. I believe they deserved to play in the final. They can be proud of themselves.
I want to congratulate "Inter," who did an excellent job in both matches. I wish them all the best in the final in Munich," quotes Flick the official UEFA website.
