Xavi Hernandez, the coach of Barcelona, was visibly worried after tonight’s game.
At home, Barcelona was defeated by Cadiz – 1: 0, in the game of the 32nd round of LaLiga.
“We created so many opportunities that we could have easily won this game, but that did not happen in the end. Cadiz played flawlessly on defense. Unfortunately, we lost the first final, and seven more are waiting for us. We have to fight for the place that leads to the Champions League next season at all costs. We have to be self-critical, to analyze what we are doing wrong and fix it urgently “, said Xavi.
He added that the absence of the best must not be an excuse, tonight there was no Pique, no Araujo or Pedri…
“It is obvious that the absence of players like Pedri and Araujo is felt, but that must not be an excuse. The ball just didn’t go into the goal. We tried hard. They scored at the beginning of the second half and broke the game. After that, they slowed down the game and were aggressive in defense. We missed the fans, I am sorry that our most loyal tribune was not filled tonight, because they boycotted the arrival “, said Xavi.
In the next round, Barca will play against Real Sociedad on Thursday.
