Xavi expressed his anger as well as his disappointment for Barcelona’s 1-0 defeat at home to Almeria for the 23rd matchday of LaLiga at the press conference after the match.
It was the second consecutive negative result for the Blaugrana, who lost to Manchester United at Old Trafford in midweek and were eliminated from the Europa League.
The statements of the Catalan coach in detail
“It is the worst game of the season, both in attack and defense, as well as in creativity and intensity. Nothing turned out the way we wanted. Perhaps fatigue plays a role. We played a bad game. I’m angry because we had a chance to get within ten points and we didn’t do it.
We are upset and we have to look for solutions now, because the hard part is coming in La Liga and the Cup and there is no time for another failure. We need to change our mindset right now.
I am very disturbed by what happened. We failed, we have no excuse. We didn’t generate tension, we didn’t show the desire to win and that’s what worries me the most. In the first half we showed no passion or soul.
We failed, we have to apologize to the fans. We couldn’t play in any case, we missed a golden opportunity».
