At home against Eintracht Frankfurt, Barcelona were weak defensively and stalemate offensively. Catalonia gave their opponents a three-goal lead in just 67 minutes, and only two in injury time. This result allowed the Blaugrana to officially stop this year’s Europa League with a 3-4 aggregate score after two games.

Sharing after the game, Catalonia coach Xavi was very disappointed, he said: “That was our mistake. It was an ill-fated night. Barcelona made a lot of mistakes and the second goal was a penalty. The third goal came when we pushed them to counterattack. That’s all we analyze, and that can’t happen. We must judge for ourselves. ”

“We scored two goals but we couldn’t attack in the best possible way. We weren’t as good as in other games, they played well on the counter-attack. Barca controlled the game but we were there. No when they used very little The time (ball time) to do that, they didn’t put enough pressure on them to hurt them.” – The 42-year-old military leader stressed.

Xavi not satisfied with Barca’s performance

Also, the Spanish strategist was surprised when so many Eintracht fans turned up at Camp Nou. “The atmosphere today didn’t help Barca. We expected around 70,000 or 80,000 people from Catalonia, but that didn’t happen. It was like a final with a split of support. I think the club. The department is looking at what happened. What, but that’s not an excuse for failure.”

Yesterday there were almost 30,000 Eintracht fans in the stands, although the Camp Nou organisers only allocated 5,000 tickets for away fans. This, reinforced and helped the Bundesliga representative knock down Barca. It is reported that this stems from the fact that the German team fans bought back the tickets of the Barcelona fans.
