Barcelona coach Hansi Flick took the blame after Saturday’s shock 4-2 defeat to Osasuna.
Flick had called back a number of his key figures. He paid dearly for it as Osasuna won their first LaLiga match against Barca since 2020.
The former Germany and Bayern Munich coach had been looking to become the second Barca coach, after Gerardo Martino, to win his first eight LaLiga matches in charge.
But Barca never entertained the notion of being anything but second best at Estadio El Sadar-Roberto Torres’ double put Osasuna at their rightful place, with the visitors able to produce a mere 0.68 expected goals (xG).
“You simply have to learn how to accept such defeats. We didn’t play very well. I think it’s my responsibility,” Flick told Movistar Plus.
“[With the changes] I tried to protect the players, as they’ve been playing many minutes. But I didn’t expect us to play like this.
“We made a lot of mistakes and Osasuna did well. Although in the second goal I think that there was a foul from the start of the action, but I’m not entirely sure because I haven’t seen it yet, that’s what I’ve heard.
“To concede four is a bit too much, but I’ve told the team we need to keep on going. The match calendar is dense, and we’re on the right track.”
Flick was speaking of a challenge made by Osasuna midfielder Lucas Torro, who stood on Pau Victor’s foot before the arrival of Zaragoza for their second goal in the 28th minute.
The goal was given since neither the referee nor VAR had spotted the foul.
“I rear the offender Pedri said in a highly excited tone to Movistar Plus.
Pedri also dismissed the notion that Flick’s substitutions were responsible for “letting” Barca into the game.
“There was rotation and there are many matches, that’s no excuse. With 11 players on the field, and the scoreline at half-time against us, we almost circled our pitchers.”
In the first half, we were bad. We did not come into the game well. We deserved more in the second half but fell behind shortly after that when we were at our best.
We had to go for the game. We had to give everything and counter-attacks were our foes.
