Barcelona coach Hansie Flick has not concealed disappointment with his team’s performance in a 2-1 defeat to Real Madrid in El Clásico, a result of ending the series of nine rowing Catalan victories in La League.

In the statement after the match, the German acknowledged Barcelona was not at the regular physical and energy level, though he praised the team’s performance in the second part.

No, I’m not happy with the show. Today, it was found that we were not full – lived and that we were not physically willing. We are usually more active and energetic than we showed today. I think we could have created more cases, but our appearance on the second part was good, Flick said.

Barcelona’s coach stressed that his team managed to get back into the game after Real Madrid’s cases to score the second goal. According to him, the 1-1 draw gave Barcelona confidence that it could reverse the outcome.

Real Madrid had two opportunities to score the second goal, but then we were able to return to the match and control its course. We scored the draw target, 1-1, which was extremely important to us, he said.

Flick discovered that at that point he felt that the fight was going in favor of Barcelona, but the mistake of building a stock under the pressure of his opponent cost his team.

At that moment I felt that the fight was going in our favor and that we had the advantage in the game. But in the end, we repeated the same mistake. As we were trying to build the game under pressure from the opponent, Real Madrid managed to take the ball from us and immediately launch a counterattack, from which he scored the goal, the German coach stressed.

Flick acknowledged, however, that Barcelona must accept the outcome and learn from the mistakes made, remembering that the losses are part of football.

We have to accept what happened. Of course, this is not the ideal result for us, but we have to deal with this situation because even losses are part of football, Flick concluded.

Despite the loss in El Clásico, Barcelona remains the leader of La League with 27 points, followed by Atletico Madrid with 25 and Real Madrid with 24 points. /Telegraphy/
