‘We played a very bad game’ – Hansi Flick blasts Barcelona after Celta draw


Barcelona manager Hansi Flick was not happy with his team after Saturday’s 2-2 draw with Celta Vigo.

The Catalans went 2-0 up through Raphinha and Robert Lewandowski and looked set for all three points at Balaidos.

However, a red card for Marc Casado changed the game late on, while a Jules Kounde mistake allowed Celta to halve the deficit.

Celta then equalised with four minutes of normal time remaining, leaving Flick an unhappy manager at the final whistle.

“It wasn’t just ten minutes. We played a very bad game today,” he told DAZN afterwards. “We have to be honest.

“We made a lot of mistakes, also in the first half, and we weren’t confident with the ball. We didn’t play the football we’re used to. We were lucky with some situations and in the end we got a point and we have to react because it can’t be repeated.

“These are things that can happen but we have to look forward. The least bad thing is that it’s only one match and we got a point but we’re not happy and neither are the players. Everyone can play better than today.

“It is not Jules’ fault alone or the red card for Casadó. It is the whole team’s fault that wins and loses but we will return to our level and I hope that what we saw does not influence Tuesday against Brest.”

Barca are back in action in midweek in the Champions League against Brest and then Las Palmas at Montjuic in La Liga next weekend.
