Captain of Barça, the Spanish midfielder looks back on the victory in Madrid on Thursday, in the semi-final first leg.
Sergio Busquets (captain of FC Barcelona, 1-0 winner of Real Madrid in the semi-final first leg of the Copa del Rey of Spain ) : «We would have liked to have more possession, to have more control of the ball during the match, but they pressed us well. We were able to compete, the team did a lot of physical work, we were very united. Them, despite the fact that they had control of the ball and possession, they did not have a clear scoring opportunity.
We managed to score this goal which gives us a small advantage for the second leg. We were disappointed because we wanted to continue the adventure in the Europa League and widen the gap in La Liga in Almeria, but we know that there are still a lot of matches left this season, that we have a lot of injuries, but also a great team. The team will grow, and even if we won, we have to progress. (Of his 46 clasicos, a record) It’s an incredible number, being able to enjoy this kind of matches after all these years is the best».
