Barcelona coach Javi Hernandez criticized his team for failing to capitalize on the opportunities presented to him in Tuesday’s 2-0 loss to Bayern Munich in the Champions League despite dominating the match.
Bayern scored two goals in four minutes to top Group C, three points ahead of Barcelona and Inter Milan, who had beaten lower club Viktoria Plzen.
In the next two matches, Bayern will play Viktoria Plzen, while Barcelona will play Inter.
Barcelona got the ball and landed 18 shots to Germany’s 13, but four of them were on goal, as was Bayern.
Xavi told reporters: I’m angry, I don’t like defeat, we didn’t deserve it, last year I was angry because Bayern were stronger than my team, but I think today we performed better than Bayern. we controlled Bayern and beat them.
He continued: “We created a lot of scoring chances that could have changed the game. It’s all about the details in the Champions League matches, at this level everyone is equal, and these mistakes have to be paid for, we have learned our lesson.
Xavi indicated that his team needed to reduce their mistakes and said: We made a mistake on a corner kick, then a mistake on the transition from attack to defense, and we did not stop Bayern, on the contrary, he managed to stop our attacks several times. once.
And then we failed a lot of things, and we didn’t have the performance that we usually enjoy, so we played well, which is a plus, and a loss is a minus.
