"I don't know what happened with the first yellow card. I have to talk to him and see the videos, and the second one shouldn't have gone in like that,"
"But these things happen in football. It wasn't the right time or the right play, but that's how it was."
Araujo was sent off at the end of the first half, receiving his fourth red card for Barcelona since 2023 and leaving the team a man down at Stamford Bridge. Manager Flick expressed uncertainty about the first yellow and said he needed to review video evidence, while adding that the second booking should not have occurred in that manner. Flick acknowledged that such incidents happen in football and that the timing and nature of the sending-off were unfortunate. After a humbling defeat to Chelsea, the match becomes crucial for preserving Barcelona's chances of automatic qualification.
