Marcus Rashford has declared that Barcelona’s 3-1 win over Elche is very important in the push to retain their LaLiga title this season, Softfootball reports.
The England international scored the third goal after Lamine Yamal opened scoring and Ferran Torres netted his 50th goal for Barcelona with the away side getting a consolation through Rafa Mir. Barcelona bounced back from the 2-1 defeat to Real Madrid in the El Clasico last week.
Speaking after the match in an interview shared on Barcelona’s official X handle. Rashford said:
Very important. Its always important after win to lost a game, to win the next game is the most important thing. I’m very happy with this and we will try to build a momentum and I’m happy today.
Confidence is a huge thing in football and the onus is on us to work hard to win and to feel good with our relationships on the pitch. Winning is helping us but we take it game by game and focus on ourselves and try to improve our performances.
