Directly involved on Saturday evening in FC Barcelona's poor performance at Celta Vigo (2-2), Jules Koundé assumed his responsibilities.
Everything was going well for FC Barcelona on Saturday evening at Celta Vigo. In front for almost the entire match, the Blaugrana seemed to be heading straight for a logical victory against a mid-table team. But six minutes from the end of regulation time, the machine stalled and the visitors finally finished with ten men and conceded two goals to concede an annoying draw to say the least (2-2, 14th day). Involved in the first opposing goal, Jules Koundé confessed.
The French defender did not try to hide after this unexpected poor performance. If it all started with the red card received by his teammate, Marc Casado, in the 82nd minute of play, Jules Koundé lost a ball two minutes later, before Alfonso Gonzalez went to score the 1-2 goal. (84th). At the microphone of
DAZNthe French side declared: “We didn’t do what we needed to do throughout the game and at the end (…). And it doesn't start with me. I didn't have a good match at all. I lacked concentration and it was paid for in a simple gesture. This is a big mistake. »
Koundé accepts his mistake
And Jules Koundé concludes: “I accept this error which ultimately puts us in a complicated situation. This mistake harmed us. » As for Hansi Flick, he also felt that his team had not been up to par. And not just at the end of the meeting. “It's not just about the last ten minutes, but the whole game. We really had a bad match, it must be said honestly. »
In the meantime, FC Barcelona remains at the top of La Liga but it can see Real Madrid come back to four points behind the Merengue winning this Sunday at Leganes (6:30 p.m.). The Catalans remain in two matches in a row without success in the league. They will have to get their act together very quickly next weekend at home against Las Palmas.
