"It doesn't matter who we play against, we always want to win"

Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski was very satisfied with his team's performance in the Spanish Super Cup final. They defeated Real Madrid (2-5), “with a great first half in which we had many chances”.

“The last 30 minutes were a bit more difficult, but if you win 2-5, you can control the match,” said Lewandowski, who insisted that, with an advantage on the scoreboard, the team must "play with more experience and with more patience" because they have ”many young players.”

On Sunday, in Jeddah, Barcelona proved that maturity by winning a title against Real Madrid “because a match against them is always a big one,” recalled the Poland international, who scored the 1-2 from the penalty spot.

“Now, we are very happy, but in three days we have the next match. This season, we have big challenges ahead of us and our mentality must be to keep going. We can enjoy ourselves, but tomorrow we have to start preparing for the next one,” he commented with regard to next Wednesday's Copa del Rey clash against Real Betis.
