Mundo Deportivo reported that Barcelona coach Hansi Flick had abused the Blaugrana players after the 2-2 draw with Celta Vigo on Saturday.
Barcelona were leading 2-0 in the match at Balaídos until the 84th minute, but within two minutes the home side managed to equalise and Barca lost two valuable points in the La Liga struggle.
According to the report, Flick was very nervous in the dressing room after the match and began to reprimand the players and accuse them of being lenient.
Flick assured the players that what they had given was never enough to return to Catalonia with the three points, which was proven by the final result and the loss of a victory that was within reach.
What angered the German coach the most was that the players lost their focus in this way in the final minutes and were lenient in dealing with an opponent who had shown more than once his danger and capabilities.
At the end of his talk with the players and after the reprimand and scolding, Flick tried to calm things down by asking the players to focus on the Brest match in the Champions League next Tuesday and achieve victory.
It is worth noting that Barcelona’s draw with Celta Vigo gave Real Madrid the opportunity to reduce the gap to one point with the La Liga leaders if they win against Leganes on Sunday and Valencia in the postponed match that will be played in early January 2025.
