Flick Laments Barcelona's Defensive Lapses in 4-4 Draw Against Atletico

Posted : 26 February 2025

Barcelona manager Hansi Flick expressed frustration over his team's defensive lapses after they squandered a two-goal lead to draw 4-4 against Atletico Madrid in the first leg of their Copa del Rey semifinal. Flick emphasized that conceding four goals was unacceptable for a club of Barcelona's stature and stressed the need to develop a winning mentality in crucial moments.

 

He acknowledged that his team had created several chances to extend their lead but ultimately allowed Atletico back into the game in the closing minutes, which he described as a costly lack of concentration.

 

Despite the disappointment, Flick highlighted that Barcelona’s young squad still has room for growth but insisted that inexperience was not an excuse for their defensive shortcomings. He stated that his team would analyze the defensive errors and work on improvements before the second leg.

 

 The manager also pointed out that Barcelona had controlled most of the match and created numerous scoring opportunities, yet their failure to maintain focus in the final moments overshadowed their attacking performance.

 

While acknowledging Atletico Madrid’s fighting spirit, Flick remained optimistic about Barcelona’s chances in the return leg. He noted that the match had been entertaining for the fans and that his team had shown positive aspects in their play.

 

However, he stressed the importance of staying defensively disciplined until the final whistle. Despite the setback, he expressed confidence that Barcelona could still advance by correcting their mistakes and maintaining their belief in the second leg.
