In the post-match press conference, Xavi Hernandez tried to explain what had happened on the pitch, and when asked by the journalists, he had no choice but to make excuses.

The Barcelona coach confessed that he is concerned: I am concerned that we have not been at our level of play. Madrid have things clear, they don't mind having a low block, a medium... We had to miss the first and second goals. We have not taken advantage of the moments
