Hansi Flick has been invincible throughout his coaching career in finals, and now, on April 26, Flick’s Barca will face Real Madrid in a Copa del Rey final clash. Flick has won 6/6 finals and is an ultimate big-game specialist. Let’s discuss this amazing Flick ball feature.
Flick’s X-factor in Upcoming Clasico Finale
A coach who has never lost a final: the psychological advantage of this fact will be massive. Flick’s trophy haul of the Champions League, German Cup, Club World Cup, German Super Cup, and recent Spanish Super Cup speaks volumes about his ability to win big clashes.
Therefore, this can be an X factor for the Barcelona dressing room. Going into the final with the belief that playing with the tactics of a flawless manager will be Barcelona’s X-factor, and right now, even the slightest edge will work for Barca because titles are on the line.
Can Real Madrid Break Flick’s Hex?
Another interesting statistic as we head into the match is Real Madrid’s Copa del Rey final record. While the Catalans have the record for most finals (42) and wins (31), Real Madrid has the record of losing most CDR finals in history (20). Flick looks forward to making it 21 in April.
However, if anyone can spoil Flick’s party, it’s Real Madrid. Los Blancos have match winners in Mbappe, Jude Bellingham, and Vinicius, and Hansi Flick will need to deploy strict tactics to nullify their brilliance. Ancelotti’s team is not one to take it easy just based on previous records, and Flick knows this better than anyone.
Final Thoughts
Since arriving in Barcelona, Flick has forged a winner’s mindset in the Barca team. After a trophyless last season, the Blaugrana are competing for a treble this season, and a win in the Copa del Rey will complete 33% of the treble.
Let’s believe in Flick Ball and hope he continues his flawless final record. Visca Barca, Vamos Flick !
