FC Barcelona managed to win three points but had to work harder than necessary against Almería, at home. Xavi Hernández detracted from the work of the visitors, mentioning that they gave away the goals on two occasions, despite the fact that the defense with Araújo, Christensen and Koundé were not up to the task.

"This is a match that should end 2-0 or 3-0, but the team does not have the spirit it showed last season, neither the aggressiveness nor the concentration. This is unacceptable... We gave Almería two unnecessary goals and that sums up our season," mentioned Xavi Hernández in response to the press.

“We lack confidence. It is a key victory to continue in the fight for the league. These two weeks I think it will be good for us to rest, disconnect and go for a 2024 with titles... For me the first part is unacceptable as a coach, the second part is, yes, with aggression, with pressure. The team changed a lot in the second, although we gave away the two goals. We have to improve a lot," added Xavi Hernández.
