Before Barcelona’s match against Porto in the UEFA Champions League today, the burden was on Xavi and Barcelona to provide a performance that would meet expectations. They had not been able to advance to the round of sixteen in either of the previous two seasons, but if they were to win, they would be able to do so.

Despite the fact that the Catalans were trailing by a score of 0-1 in the first half, Joao Cancelo took it upon himself to give an outstanding performance today. However, thanks to a goal and an assist from the Portuguese, Xavi’s team was able to overcome the challenge.

At the beginning of the game, everything appeared to be quite hopeless, but we had a winning mentality. It was considerably better for us in the second half of the game. The performance of his team was relayed by MARCA, and he expressed his happiness by saying, “I’m happy, very happy today.”

After competing in the Europa League for two years, the squad has achieved a significant victory.

Iñaki Peña, who, despite surrendering, came through with a crucial effort, was one of the standouts for Barca today. Cancelo was also a standout for the team.

“Inaki has been remarkable in every ways. In addition to the saves, but also in the build-up to the game. “The youngster has demonstrated a wonderful personality,” Xavi lauded the youngster.

In addition to this, he brought to light some defensive shortcomings within the club, stating, “We encountered some difficulties.” We have a lot of room for improvement in other areas as well as what we do defensively.

While Cancelo had a fantastic game, Felix was in desperate need of this score. “It is significant for him,” he said, referring to the two players who scored goals today.

In response to a question about which teams he would prefer not to meet in the knockout stages, Xavi, to everyone’s surprise, picked the team that Barcelona had defeated twice in the group stages.

It’s Porto. During this season, I would prefer not to compete against them again. They are an outstanding group!

During the final portion of his post-game news conference, he discussed Robert Lewandowski and stated that the club needs to improve their ability to locate him in potentially hazardous areas.

When it comes to Lewandowski, we need to generate more output.
