Barcelona midfielder Gavi couldn’t hide his frustration after seeing his team throw away a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 at Celta on Saturday.
Gavi made his first start in a year at Balaidos and had his team on course for a 2-0 win until a late collapse saw Hansi Flick’s side forced to settle for a point.
Here’s what he had to say afterwards:
“We had the game under control but we got involved in two poor moves and we have to learn from that,” he told the media.
“The first goal was a stupid thing. We have to clear the ball in that position but that’s football. You have to learn.
“With a man down it’s really difficult, not just against Celta against any team, if you’re not focused what can happen can happen.
“It’s my first start after a year. I’m happy with that but obviously the thing was to get three points and we didn’t get that.”
It’s a disappointing night for Barcelona and more dropped points for Flick’s side. They are back in action in midweek against Brest in the Champions League.
