Barcelona coach Xavi talks up Torres, Yamal for victory over Cadiz

Barcelona coach Xavi was happy after their 2-0 win against Cadiz.

Ferran Torres and Pedri scored for Barca on Sunday.

On Torres, Xavi said: “Ferran has been an example of work and sacrifice since he arrived. I always tell them to be prepared. The behavior of the five who have entered has been exemplary.

“He has always been an example to the team. Maybe the next day he has more minutes. It is competition. When Ferran plays, you’ll ask me why I don’t play someone else.

“Today was a very good day. Halfway through we corrected. Patience and not attack first. It is difficult when they stand behind, they waste time and there is no rhythm of the game, it costs. In the second-half we were better. Happy. Quite satisfied with the work. We have to respect the opposition more and wait for the right moment. We have to attack less first and be more patient.”

On Lamine Yamal, he added: “I see Lamine very prepared. He can make a difference. Today he did not score because Ledesma has made the best game of the season. We have to take care of him together. He is a talent. He has no problem at 16 years. He is very prepared to contribute to the team.”
