Original Title: Raphinha: “In modern football, it’s important for all players to defend and attack. The game has become very dynamic and very physical, and I know I’m not a player who makes a huge difference in one-on-ones, but I know I have to help my teammates on defence.”
Other quotes:
Raphinha: “In the first half, we were below our usual level, but we have a kid playing with us, Lamine, who sometimes comes out with some of his golden feet and gives us the calm to play more comfortably.”
Raphinha: “I usually say that the coach’s confidence in you is a fundamental factor that can change you, whether for the better or the worse. This confidence is what helped me regain my confidence and perform my work well. And the confidence of my teammates as well.”
Raphinha: “In January, some said we would only compete for 3rd place in La Liga… But we believed in ourselves. And that was the key. We believed in the work, in what we knew we could do.”
