The FC Barcelona coach was very satisfied with the victory against Atlético
“It was a very complete match, only effectiveness failed, because it was to win comfortably”
“The best game of the season.” With this phrase Xavi Hernández defined FC Barcelona’s victory against Atlético de Madrid. A “step forward” that has to be, for the technician, “the way to follow” from now on.
“The victory against Porto was key. The players have grown. There are moments in the season when you are not right and the team was excellent today,” analyzed the Egarense. “In the duels, in the pressure after loss, in the circulation, the players inside have understood each other very well, Gündogan, Pedri and Frenkie, the work of those above has also been very good.”
A negative point, yes. “Effectiveness. It’s the only thing that failed, because it was a game to win comfortably. And in the end we ended up being able to tie. That’s football… We created chances, we arrived well, we have a final counterattack to seal it. We could have done much before. We lack effectiveness to finish the games.
