Ronald Araujo was the protagonist in Barça’s elimination against PSG. With the tie controlled by Xavi Hernández’s team and two goals ahead for the Blaugranas, the Uruguayan made a decision that ended up being decisive. It was half an hour into the game when the centre-back fouled Barcola when the PSG winger was marching alone towards Ter Stegen’s goal. He saw the red and the game and the tie changed.
The Uruguayan, one of Barça’s captains, left the pitch very angry with the referee, as he considered that the action did not deserve such a harsh punishment. He had a very bad time watching the match and the elimination of his team and he also had a bad night after having even received some criticism from some of his colleagues.
This Wednesday he trained with the group, somewhat more animated but being aware of the responsibility he had in the qualifying round. The Uruguayan understands all commitment to the club, that he must face his mistake, being sure that the move will end up making him a better footballer, which is a mistake from which he will learn..
Affected, the player has sent a message to the fans through social networks. “The football that gave me so much joy, now hits me hard. I thank all those who are unconditionally by my side, my teammates who left everything on the field, and the fans who believed in this team until the end. I am very sorry not to give you this joy. We will try again. ¡Força Barça, always there!”
After hard hours and as the great professional that he is, Araujo wants to turn the page and focus now on this Sunday’s classic against Real Madrid, a match in which Barça must add three points to continue maintaining hopes of a comeback in the League. He will do it definitively this Thursday. The central defender will attend the presentation of the nineteenth edition of the book ‘Relats Solidaris de l’Esport’, which he sponsors together with Cristhian Stuani and which this year will allocate its profits to the Enrique Villavecchia Children’s Oncology Foundation. Araujo, in addition to helping in a solidarity event, will answer journalists’ questions. “He needs to talk,” they explain from their surroundings.
