Barcelona were eliminated again
Firstly, Barcelona were eliminated again, but Xavi doesn't see that as a failure, understand better.
Two consecutive eliminations for Barcelona
Firstly, no team can survive two eliminations in a row without receiving pressure, that's Barcelona, the pressure has arrived.
On 01/20/22, Barcelona fell to Atletic Bilbao in the Copa del Rey, another elimination for the account.
In this way, Xavi says that his team is mentally shaken, and needs a series of victories to turn things around.
Failure NO
At first, the most pressured is coach Xavi, after the game against San Mames, journalists spoke of failure and embarrassment.
Therefore, Xavi was irritated by the term and did not admit failure, even though the team lost again.
Barcelona were eliminated again.
If the previous time in the Spanish Super Cup it had been 3-2 in extra time against Real Madrid.
This time history repeated itself, another 3-2 in extra time, but now against Atletic Bilbao.
Not even his history as an idol at the club helped to reduce the charge
Sometimes the player's history at the club softens the criticism, Xavi made a winning history at the club.
Alongside Iniesta, Messi, Neymar and company, he won everything for the club, and fans' memories are of that Barcelona.
While he was a player at the club, Barcelona was feared by its rivals, however, today it is going through a very bad phase.
When he heard the word failure, Xavi promptly responded:
“I don’t think the word failure is right, we tried. We need to recover mentally, as it is very tense to lose two titles in one week.”
Therefore, Xavi and the players left sad with the elimination, and with injured players, Pedri and Ansu Fati.
It has definitely not been a good time for Barcelona.
