"The first goal? I have apologised to Pau Cubarsi"

Barca claimed a crushing 4-0 victory against Borussia Dortmund and are now practically in the semifinals. Raphinha, who opened the scoring and provided two assists, first to Lewandowski and then to Lamine Yamal, was largely to blame.

The Brazilian, the Champions League's top scorer with 12 goals, did not hide the fact that he was a bit worried when he steal the goal from Cubarsi because he thought he might be offside. "I was quite worried on the play of the first goal in case it was offside, I had doubts. I touched the ball before it crossed the line and I apologised to Cubarsi and he told me that it was okay, that it counted as an assist. My striker's instinct came out," he told the ‘Movistar’ microphones.

On the other hand, Raphinha spoke about the performance of the ‘Cules’ attacking trio, as the three stars scored: "I love playing with players of a very high level. I think we know each other very well and it is quite important. We are doing spectacular things and I hope we continue like this".

Finally, the Barca winger called for calm despite Barça's four-goal cushion for the second leg. "I'm not going to admit that we're in the semifinals. There is another game and playing there is always complicated. They are a team that has a lot of quality. We have achieved a good result and we have to continue like this, and we have to play a good game next week," he finished.
