Gerard Piqué is one of those references who does not hide and puts his face in moments of turbulence. And the tie against Celta that put the top of the League at risk shook Barcelona. So much so that until after the game Luis Suárez let out a dart for Quique Setién, that the coach answered at a press conference. In the midst of this scenario, the Catalan central defender raised his voice and sent a forceful message to his fans. In your case, with the intention of spreading optimism.
Remember one thing, We are Barça and this is not over yet. Fighting to the end is part of our DNA. Head high and on Tuesday, we will go for all “, were the words that Piqué wrote on his Twitter account This Sunday morning, with the anger of equality in Vigo already chewed and Tuesday’s game against Atlético de Madrid of Diego Simeone in the sights.
Piqué’s statements contrast with the tone of the message of the Uruguayan Luis Suárez, whose double in the 2-2 against Celta was not enough to win. “There is something for the coaches to analyze these situations”, He commented when asked about the causes of Barcelona’s inability to defend the advantage he had twice in the match.
The answer was immediate. “I can say a thousand things, but there is no single cause for these things happening. We try to defend ourselves with the ball and there are times when you cannot attack. We would like to be more solid in many aspects. We are a team that wants to win and play on rival field, but sometimes there is lack of coordination, “Quique Setién explained at a press conference. What was very clear is that given the latest performances by Barcelona, the weather is not the best in the Catalan team.
Now Real Madrid, if they beat Espanyol, have the possibility of beating Barcelona and being the leader of the event. But beyond what happens this afternoon with him Merengue, Piqué was clear with his people: the turbulence is temporary and there are still six games to straighten the ship led by Quique Setién. There is still nothing defined, to Barcelona and there is a certain Lionel Messi who at any time can rub the magic left foot.
