“Sometimes it’s not about the power; it’s more important to cross to a specific spot, and for me it was a brilliant ball.”

Despite being so close to lifting the trophy, Lewandowski remained cautious about celebrations.

“It would be a wonderful moment to win the league. It would also be lovely to celebrate with the fans in the city. Until we win the league, it’s best not to talk about it,” he noted.

Ferran Torres takes the stage

Off the bench, Ferran Torres played a key role in sealing the win, scoring the second goal that ultimately made the difference.

Speaking after the match, he highlighted just how important this victory could be in the title race.

“We want to be champions as soon as possible, so we can enjoy it sooner,” he said, before adding,

“If they don’t win, we’ll be crowned champions.

“I think today was one of the toughest away games in La Liga, where we knew that the three points here were worth more than just three points, and I think the team played a brilliant game.”

Lastly, he reinforced the team’s collective mindset, stressing that the job is nearly done but not complete.

“We knew it was one of the toughest matches of the season; this is a very difficult ground. We’ve done our job, and done it very well.

“Now we just have to wait until tomorrow to see what Madrid do, and hopefully we can be champions,” he concluded.
