Koeman: “We are used to playing with one less”

Satisfied with the game of his team and with the performance of his attacking players in the defeat of the Hungarian Ferencváros. This was shown Ronald Koeman after a comfortable victory to start on the right foot in the Champions League and at least partially remove the bad taste in their mouths of the defeat in the League against Getafe. «Generally happy because there have been moments of the match in which we have done good football. There are times when we slow down but generally well. Great football in the first 30 minutes of the second half, “said the Barça coach.

However, the expulsion of Gerard Piqué, which will force Barça to play without the leader of its defense in the demanding visit to Juventus next week, provoked the indignation of the culé coach, very upset with the referee’s decision: «The red card has complicated us but we are used to it to play with one less, it already happened to us in Vigo. In my opinion it is yellow and I do not understand why it takes a red card ».

«That the people from above are giving performance is the best thing that can happen to the coach. Today we have shown that we have attacking people who can give a lot of performance. Messi today two assists and a goal. He has worked, he has helped the team and has scored the penalty, which is not easy as I know from my time as a player, “Koeman said after the game.

«There is competition, not only on the right wing but also on the left, with Leo who can play on the wing or as ’10’. I’m happy, the only thing to be unhappy is that sometimes in matches we slow down a bit. If we maintain the rhythm the team is very good, but if we lower the intensity we have problems », analyzed the Barça coach, who this time left Griezmann without minutes, fueling the debate around the French player.
