QUESTION: “Don´t you think that it is a bit arrogant that FC Barcelona is offering two tickets to the Cup semi final as a prize in a competition to it´s fans? Last season Zaragoza knocked you team out and now the club is imagining that it is in the semi final before the quarter final has even begun?
RIJKAARD ANSWER: “I don´t get involved in the PR side of the club or any of it´s promotions and marketing. Do you think you have special powers and you have prior knowledge that we are NOT going to make it to the semi final?????
“I think you will find, if you check, that the club is not being arrogant and all it says is that a fan can win two tickets to the semi final regardless of whether Barcelona makes it through or not
“Believe me when I tell you that we all know that Zaragoza remain a good team and we will have to work very hard to beat them!”
是对里杰卡尔德的采访
參考答案:问：“你不认为巴萨把两张国王杯半决赛门票作为一个游戏的奖品送给球迷有点傲慢吗？上个赛季萨拉戈萨把你们踢出了局而现在四分之一决赛还没开始俱乐部却想象已经进了半决赛？”
里杰卡尔德回答：“我一般不会在公众场合谈及俱乐部的推广和市场运作。你认为你有特殊能力预先知道我们进不了半决赛？？？？？”
“我认为你们如果仔细想一下就会发现俱乐部并没有表现出傲慢，它只是说球迷可以赢得两张半决赛门票---无论巴萨是否真的晋级。”
“相信我，我现在可以告诉你的是萨拉戈萨是一支很棒的球队，我们将会尽全力来打败他们。”
