Gérard Pique, Barcelona’s great defender, has stated that the team is suffering as a result of their recent losses in LaLiga and other games.
Atletico Madrid defeated Catalan giants Barcelona 2-0 at the Wanda Metropolitano, with former striker Luis Suarez scoring one goal and Thomas Lemar netting the other.
This came after two consecutive 3-0 losses in the Champions League group round.
Barcelona, according to Pique, will not be able to score a goal even if the referees decide to add another three hours of stoppage time to the games.
“Their goals have been two identical plays in which they scored twice with very little effort,” Pique stated after the defeat to Atletico Madrid, as cited by Mundo Deportivo.
“And we could play football for three hours and yet not score a goal. It’s a challenge. I’ll be honest, we’re in pain.
“There isn’t just one issue; there are multiple issues that people are already aware of. You don’t have to be blind to know what we’re lacking, but I believe we’ll be able to overcome it.
“Many of us in the squad had never seen anything like it before. However, the players’ chemistry is excellent; youths and veterans collaborate, and there is a desire to improve the situation.”
Since the last international break, Barcelona has had one win, two draws, and three losses.
