“I congratulate the four qualified teams and Benfica, who were part of our group and played two great games. On the other hand, I don’t remember a bad match like this in the European League. It was a blatant defeat, they took advantage of our mistakes well and we couldn’t reach the goal difference with the horizon of reaching A balanced end to the match. We chose the worst day to present the worst version of us, “we started by telling the Blaugrana coach, in the statements at the end of the match.

“Benfica made things uncomfortable for us and they were doing very well on counterattacks.”

He made things uncomfortable for us and they were very good at counterattacking. I don’t think it was a matter of severity. They had the mark in their favor, they used different types of intensity. We couldn’t find the target. With 3-1 we had many opportunities to reduce and then there could have been a change in the direction of the match. “

He concluded by saying, “There are games in which everything goes wrong. This was one of them, and we must learn from what we can draw possible conclusions from.”
