"There's never any shortage of drama at Barcelona and the last few days have provided plenty more - just not in the way we would like as culers. An awful defeat to Atletico Madrid in the Copa del Rey brought an eight-minute VAR delay, a controversial decision to rule out a goal from Pau Cubarsi and left Barca with a mountain to climb in the second leg."
"We were all hoping for a response on Monday against Girona but instead there was more disappointment as Barcelona wasted plenty of chances and lost 2-1. The game also brought more controversy as Fran Beltran's goal was given despite a foul on Jules Kounde in the build-up. There was talk ahead of the game that Barcelona players had asked Flick to tweak his tactics but there seemed few changes against Girona and the boss was critical of his team after the game."
Barcelona suffered an awful defeat to Atletico Madrid in the Copa del Rey, with an eight-minute VAR delay and a controversial decision to rule out a Pau Cubarsi goal, leaving Barca with a mountain to climb in the second leg. Hopes for a response against Girona were dashed as Barcelona wasted many chances and lost 2-1. Fran Beltran's goal stood despite a foul on Jules Kounde in the build-up, adding further controversy. Players reportedly asked Hansi Flick to tweak tactics, but few changes were visible and Flick criticized his team after the game. Questions remain over fatigue, tactics, and urgent changes needed.
