Barcelona got back to their best against Betis in a 4-0 win. Raphinha, who scored a goal and provided an assist, spoke to the 'MovistarLaLiga' and gave his first impressions after the 90 minutes.
"Without a doubt, the last game was very tough for us. We knew we needed to bounce back and this game was important. Important goals to give us more confidence," he began.
And he didn't hesitate to demand the maximum from himself: "I'm never going to see that I'm at my best, I can always improve. Scoring a goal and providing an assist to win is very important for me".
"Xavi warned us, but we knew what we could do and what we lacked in the last game. We needed a bit more attitude, to keep more possession and to win La Liga you have to do that in every game," he continued.
Raphinha also spoke about the return of the injured players: "We certainly miss them, we always want to play with the best. Ousmane and Christensen were missing and it's great to have them back.
Finally, the Brazilian commented on the debut of young Lamine Yamal: "We were talking about this on the bench, I was 15 years old and I think I was playing for my local team. And to see him come into this stadium with all these people is incredible, it would have been better if he scored, but he will score at a better time and he will be very important for the club".
