Pique is frustrated with Barcelona’s performance

DBasia.news – Barcelona continued to lose after falling at the headquarters of Atletico Madrid 0-2. Barcelona senior player, Gerard Pique was really frustrated with his team’s deadlock.

Barca challenged Atletico at the Wanda Metropolitano, Sunday (3/10/2021) am, WIB. The Blaugrana dominated the match with a ball possession advantage that reached 70% despite only making nine attempts (2 on target).

On the other hand, Atletico played efficiently. Los Rojiblancos only made six attempts with three on target including scoring two goals which were all scored in the first half. Thomas Lemar and Luis Suarez conceded Barca’s goal to ensure the home side scooped up all three points.

For Barcelona, this is the second defeat in a row after being beaten 0-3 by Benfica in the Champions League this midweek. However, there are things that are more worrying because Barcelona have failed to score in four consecutive games.

Pique feels Barca could continue to be blunt despite playing for some time on the field. Pique admitted, his team was struggling at the beginning of this season.

“We started the game well, we chased them, we dared [then] they played better. They scored two goals from very few chances and from that, we could have spent three hours and not scored,” said Pique at Marca.

“This problem is complicated. It’s complicated. We are suffering, I have to be honest,” continued the former Manchester United player.

After Suarez’s goal, Gerard Pique was seen arguing with his teammate Sergio Busquets. Pique said Barca made a similar mistake with the first goal.

“Lemar stole [the ball], Joao Felix received the ball and Ronald [Araujo] kept going forward so the back line was overwhelmed because he left space. The two goals were very similar. We will discuss them. We conceded goals unlike other teams,” complained Pique after Barcelona’s loss to Atlético.
