Brest Coach: You can beat Barcelona on the blackboard, but it's a different story on the pitch（danyu）

Live broadcast on November 26 Brest is about to face strong rival Barcelona in the Champions League. In his pre-match press conference, Brest coach Eric Roy said it was possible to find a way to beat Barcelona on the blackboard, but when it came to the pitch it was a completely different story.

Reporter: "It's almost a game against Barcelona, how do you feel now?" ”

Roy: "All I can say is incredible. We're going to travel away, to Spain to challenge Barcelona, with our 3,000 fans, it's really an unimaginable dream. I think we're going to have a lot of difficulties in the race. Matches like Barcelona's big win over Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are better off watching. If we had seen it, we would probably have stayed in Brest and not left. We're going to have to enjoy the game, not be a victim, and we're going to show what we're capable of on the field. Maybe it's not enough to win the game, but we're going to try it. ”

Reporter: "How do you assess Barcelona's performance this season?" ”

Roy: "I still know a little bit about Spanish football, I played there [Rayo Vallecano in 2001-2002] and I like to play good football there. Barcelona have played more directly under Flick, their strikers are a perfect fit for the current style of play, this team has always been very competitive, and Barca have been showing what this team has to offer. When we get the ball, we show them what we can do. We have a strong belief in this. All we have to do is show what we really do. We need to be brave enough to survive in the Champions League. I hope that the Barcelona fans will come to the scene, because both teams will give a good game. We're going to play good football, not just stick to it. Will Barcelona leave us a chance? We should have no choice but to defend well. ”

Reporter: "Do you have a plan in place for how to restrict Raphinha?" ”

Roy: "If I pull a rope near the sideline to keep him from passing in a place where Raphinha frequents, that should work (laughs)." He is one of Barca's most dangerous players, and let's not forget Olmo and Lewandowski...... So we can't just focus on one player, we have to limit their overall attack and hopefully our defenders will be good individually and as a whole. On the blackboard, on the video, we all know how to beat Barcelona. But when it came to the arena, the situation was completely different. ”

Reporter: "The key to this game is to make good use of the space left by the Barcelona defenders when they create offsides? ”

Roy: "Barcelona coach Flick likes to take risks against heavily defensive, and they are positioned up front to get the ball back on the ball. Barcelona have performed well in this regard, their strikers are very capable of breaking through and their style of play is very direct. All they need to do is pass the ball well and find the right moment between our defenders and forwards. How to prevent them is very crucial, but it is not easy to really limit them.
