“We have to demand more from ourselves, we have such a long way to go. We are losing too much, we are not meeting the expectations of the fans.
We obviously need more inspiration, we lack the confidence to score goals. I believe in the team, I am positive, but the dressing room is disappointed with the results.
We had a lot of chances, but we couldn’t score the second goal. It is not only the fault of the attackers and efficiency, but also luck is not on our side”, – Xavi, coach of “Barcelona”.
Until the end of 2023, Barcelona will again play at home with Almeria.
