Barcelona manager, Hansi Flick, has said that he has never had a chance of coaching a player like Brazilian winger Raphinha before.
Barcelona beat Bayern Munich 4-1 in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
Raphinha bagged a hat-trick on his 100th appearance for Barça, who ended a run of six successive defeats against Bayern in the competition.
The Brazilian winger was only there for two of those fixtures, but he said he experienced them all as a supporter.
His manager described him as a very good player, who plays football with smiles on his face.
“I have never had a player like Raphinha in any of my teams. He gives his all,” the German gaffer said after the game.
“Raphinha puts his heart into it. With and without the ball, he is very good, he always starts the pressing, finishes our chances. He is always smiling.”
