“we always set the bar higher than anyone else, we are proud that Barcelona always all want to win. but we have to accept this result and try to learn from it and be better. every other coach would the championship and the cup is enough, but we have to be better. “
” our goal was to win everything, but we must now establish ourselves. This is a challenge for the team, “the Spaniard suggested that his team not took too much blame.
Responsible
According to Enrique Barcelona controlled the game in Madrid. “They took advantage of a mistake from us and did then what they defend do best in their own half. We did not create enough chances and are both defensive and offensive in a lower stage.”
Yet the coach was “very proud” of his players after the defeat, he mostly blamed himself. “This is for writing 99.9 percent on my account, but not 100. That’s why I’m the coach, the main responsibility.”
The loss buck on a bad day Lionel Messi or a penalty not given in the final stage was therefore easy, Enrique noted. “It is unfair to point to individuals after a defeat.”
