Ousmane Dembele scored the only goal of Barcelona at 57′. The winning made Ernesto Valverde squad collected six points from two matches.
Though Barcelona gained a positive result, there was something trouble for Pique. The 31-year-old player felt uncomfortable playing at Estadio Municipal Jose Zorrilla.
“The pitch was a disgrace, it’s a real shame. It’s not a case of not being able to play football, the real issue is that there is a risk of injury to professionals,” Pique said reported by Marca.
The Estadio Municipal Jose Zorrilla looked poor in some parts.
” I hope those responsible for this will take action and fix it,” Pique said.
Besides the pitch, Pique also praised the utilization of video assistant referee (VAR) in LaLiga. He assumed VAR could confirm anything on the pitch.
