scratches on aluminium+black surface underneath battery: still safe?

Hi, while I was removing a swollen battery from my iPhone 5s I involuntarily scratched the aluminium foil underneath it (see photos below). Do you think it is safe if I patch it with electrical tape? If not, what do you recommend? Thanks heaps in advance

Check buttons functionality and flash first, from here I can see a little damage on the flex cable. If something is not working replace it.

If everything works fine, just use electrical tape to cover the scratched cable.
