Koeman believes in the doublet: "it Is a big step to the title"

The FC Barcelona continues giving firm steps to the leadership of LaLiga. They do not have desaprovechado the 'prick' of the Real Madrid this Saturday, in front of the Real Betis, and have added three points to equalise to the madridistas in the table, with a party less. The victory in front of the Villarreal, suffered to the end, is the big proof that hold also is important and that this team wants to sign the doublet and a traced back historical in the domestic championship.

The first part of the ones of Ronald Koeman was sensacional. They reacted immediately to the goal of Chukwueze, that premièred the marker. Antoine Griezmann, very inspired, went the manager to annotate a doublet that carried to the culés to the victory. In the second act, however, the Barça went out to half gas and the changes caused that the team went down considerably the level, although it was sufficient to keep the result and carry the three points to the City Condal.

"It is a big step to the title. Each victory is a step forward. Each party is difficult. We have reacted well to his goal, creating occasions"

Koeman, in press conference, has signalled that split like east are important to win a title and that the Barça has done the works. "It is a big step to the title. Each victory is a step forward. Each party is difficult. We have reacted well to his goal, creating occasions. We have been tired in the straight final, but have defended well", aimed, highlighting that sometimes it is necessary to suffer and that "can touch you a good rival, that put it to you difficult. We have not put us nervous after his goal. At the end it has sufficed to take out a victory of a stadium complicated".

Regarding the performance of the team in The Ceramics, underlined that had a lot of depth in attack "because, when analysing on the contrary, see that it puts to the defence advanced and on line. I think that our reaction has been important. Perhaps it was missing us freshness in the last 20 minutes to sentence the party. In spite of the failures, have been well".

The Barça depends on yes same

The victory of the culés, after the tie of the Madrid in front of the Betis, confirms that the blaugrana are increasingly near to stroke the title of the League and sign the doublet. However, Koeman has said that no fía. "When you are by behind and to distance, it is necessary to go party to party. The Athletic plays afterwards to see how remains. We have to go party to party". Regarding winning the last six 'final', commented that "if we win the six, go to be champions, but think that there are rivals that go us to complicate the life. It remains the Athletic... It remains a lot of slope, but go to go with everything to try win".

"I know that the television commands a lot, but think that have to speak on the calendar of the big teams"

The Dutch also has gone back to speak of the calendar and of the tiredness of the players: "it Is more by our mentality that by our freshness. Have two parties this week. The players are accustomed. I know that the television commands a lot, but think that have to speak on the calendar of the big teams. I know that play in Europe League, Thursday-Sunday, slope. I have spoken it with the Villarreal" , signalled.

In spite of this, the one of Zaandam has recognised that his team competes better in this point of the season, but that "always have thought that they can improve things, especially without balloon. We play of risky way without balloon, as we have seen in the slip of Alba. In the second part decide to go down the lines. I think that we were smart to control the party".

Praises to Griezmann and Of Jong

Regarding the goleador of the afternoon, Antoine Griezmann, the Barcelona trainer has desvelado that "I always have been loved with him, with his work" and has gladdened because it is "improving his effectiveness and today has been key to be able to trace back the party. This gives him confidence to him and to us. We need players like him", aimed.

Frenkie Of Jong, that signed a partidazo in The Ceramics, highlighted that for him this version of the midfield player is "better that the one of Holland and the Ajax. It can not compare Holland with LaLiga. It has improved a lot. It is doing a very good season. It arrives, it defends... It is a very important player for this team", sentenced.
