■Pedri recalled last year's game against Real Madrid and pointed out that the team's overall performance last season is a direction worthy of continuation.

"I think our overall level last season was very good, and we have to get back to that state. Of course there are always areas for improvement, but last year we won all our games with Real Madrid, and I hope we can do the same this year."

■ Regarding the team's current injury-plagued situation

"Indeed, I hope everyone can play healthy, and the coach and the team will certainly do the same. We have the same idea. No matter who can play, we will go all out and the goal is to score three points."

"They are now more focused on possession of the ball and still have a strong offensive power in the frontcourt."
