DBasia.news – Barcelona must recognize the superiority of Rayo Vallecano with a score of 1-0. Veteran midfielder Sergio Busquets admits the goal scored by Radamel Falcao’s bomber was his fault.
“I fell asleep. They managed to take the ball out of my pocket. Then they counter-attacked and executed it very well. It was my fault,” he said of Falcao’s goal.
Rayo have enjoyed the decision to sign Falcao this season, but the Barcelona midfielder credits Vallecano’s form for making the game difficult in all areas of the pitch.
“It’s a difficult place to play and we have to start from the back. I made a mistake and we paid the price.”
In the match that took place at home to Vallecano, Barcelona actually had the opportunity to equalize after receiving a penalty. However, the ball from Memphis Depay’s kick was thwarted by goalkeeper Vallecano.
“We had chances in the second half, and through penalties. We were lacking in everything: trust, concentration, not making mistakes,” said Busquets.
“We didn’t play badly, but things add up and it’s difficult when you don’t score goals,” he continued, as reported by tribalfootball.
With this defeat, the management of the Catalan team finally decided to fire Ronald Koeman as coach. Asked about Ronald Koeman’s situation, the midfielder refused to pinpoint who was at fault.
“We are all in the same boat here. It’s everyone’s fault. For better and for worse, we are a team and we have to show it on the pitch.”
