For anybody is a secret that the FC Barcelona arrived very motivated to the Classical in Santiago Bernabéu although some days before had empatado against the Inter (3-3), in a party that left to the culés with minimum options to classify to the Champions League. Visit to the Real Madrid, after the Russian mountain of feelings that had left in the last parties, supposed an opportunity of reinvindicarse and recover the confidence in front of the eternal rival.
For the ones of Xavi Hernández was an uncomfortable party, imprecise and quite grey. Further of the controversies (or no) referee's, the Barça returns to the City Condal with the feeling that it did not do the things well. It said it Xavi Hernández in room of press, that had been missing them forcefulness in both areas and that were not hit along the meeting, something impossible of 'cover'. The players have finish sunk physically, but also disappointed by have not been able to be to the height.
We review the statements of the Barcelona footballers after the visit to the Real Madrid. All have felt very sad by the result, but finally remains the conviction that they will have to follow working so that the team was more compact, reliable and sure in both areas. For the moment, it remains the disappointment and frustration 'normal' for losing in the house of the eternal rival.
Sergi Roberto was one of which gave the face in the microphones of 'DAZN': "I Think that it is important to be conclusive in both areas, has been a pity, when we have had the control of the balloon have been able to create occasions and has been a pity. When better were that we could litigate the tie have found the penalti against".
The speech of Koundé himself was harder: "I Am very disappointed. We have not done a bad party, but in the first part have failed in the transitions. It was necessary to do fault in the first goal and in the second, the same", adding that "the strength of the Madrid is that they put you two goals in two occasions. We have to learn of this". On the penal of Eric on Rodrygo, on the other hand, signalled that "it seemed me very little for penalti. It is necessary to see it. Maybe with 2-1 we could have created some occasion more. But the 3-1 sentenced it".
Alejandro Balde also pronounced in front of the official means of the club and signalled that "the truth is that we are fucked, because lose a Classical to anybody likes him. We have had at the end occasions, but this penalti that has been a bit doubtful has changed the sense of the party", but ensuring that they do not concern because "this is very long" and "remains a lot of League".
"We are hurt"
On the other hand, the author of the only so much of the blaugrana in Santiago Bernabéu, Ferran Torres, stood out that "we came of a painful party, but today is a Classical. We arrived with the batteries recargadas. With a lot of illusion. We have lost. We are hurt, but the Thursday have another opportunity".
Of the possible penalti to Lewandowski signalled that "I have not seen it repeated and if it does not have it pitado will be by something", whereas of the qeu affected to the Barcelona picture highlighted that "we have not carried the party to our terrain. We have lost a lot of balloons and have us pillado in the contras", although it thinks that after the 2-1 had options: "With the 2-1 could have tightened a bit more and the penalti has finished us to kill".
