Raphinha gives speech in Barcelona locker room after PSG defeat

Barcelona captain Raphinha reportedly addressed his teammates with a locker room speech following their 4-2 Champions League defeat against PSG. Hansi Flick's squad suffered their first defeat of the 2026-27 campaign on Tuesday against the reigning European champions. According to Cadena Ser reporter Santi Ovalle, the Brazilian winger urged the squad to remain calm and maintain their standard of work despite the continental setback.

Raphinha emphasized shifting immediate focus toward the upcoming El Clasico match against rivals Real Madrid. In post-match media comments, he insisted the Champions League loss would not derail their preparations, noting that a victory on Sunday would extend Barcelona's lead to nine points at the top of the table.
