FC Barcelona has clinched a place in the upcoming UEFA Futsal Champions League after winning the regular season on Saturday, guaranteeing one of Spain’s spots in the tournament. Illes Balears Palma now faces a major challenge to return to Europe’s top club competition: they must win the league or at least reach the final against Barcelona, just as the Balearic side did to qualify previously.
Antonio Vadillo, head coach of Illes Balears Palma, looks ahead with resolve: “We have to keep our heads up because we played a great tournament. Now it’s time to get back to work and start preparing for the future. We want to return and celebrate again. It has been an incredible journey for our club, but this is only the beginning.”
Lucas Machado echoed the sentiment: “You can’t win every tournament. We have to work to get back here – and it starts now!”
