The Colombian highlighted above all “the step forward that the team is taking, even with injuries”
“Inter is a great team and it had also been a long time since we beat them in a final,” he added.
Barça lifted the Spanish Super Cup this Sunday thanks to their well-deserved victory in the final against Movistar Inter 3-5 and they already own four of the last five possible domestic titles (two Super Cups, one League and one Spanish Cup). He only escaped the Copa del Rey last year.
Once again, Adolfo was key to this collective success and for this reason he was chosen as the most valued player in the final, an award he received from the Spanish coach Fede Vidal. “The MVP is a joy, because it reinforces the work that I always try to do to help the team as much as possible and you always like to be recognized for that work,” he explained with a humility that makes him even more loved and appreciated by all of the recently renewed until 2026.
“This Super Cup is going to be very good for us on a mental level. It is a great joy to win any title with FC Barcelona, but this one was special and very important after the setback in the Champions League. We aspire to at least reach the Final Four and we have had hard days and very low spirits, but the team has continued working and we have taken a step forward even with injuries. I don’t like to talk about hegemonies or anything like that. I prefer to have my feet on the ground. It is a very important title and we must celebrate it. We know what it has cost us to achieve this great streak, but on Wednesday we have to change our minds and think about the league and then the Copa del Rey and the Spanish Cup,” explained the Colombian.

“Inter is a great team and it had also been a long time since we beat them in a final. They have put themselves ahead of us and we have never collapsed. We have gone from less to more, we have known how to read the game perfectly and perhaps not a 10, but I give the team a 9 and a half”, said the Catalan.
Before saying goodbye, Adolfo reiterated that this Super Cup should only be the first stop towards another great season despite the fact that this time the Champions League will be missing. “You have to go for the three remaining titles. We are Barça and we have to show that we love all three of them, the League, the Spanish Cup and the Copa del Rey”, he emphasized.
