'Barcelona shot themselves in the foot' - Hansi Flick told his side 'still haven't learnt from past mistakes' after Atletico defeat

""I love watching Barça. But once again, they shot themselves in the foot. Barça still hasn't learned from its mistakes. They still don't have the right defensive profiles to be able to play so high up.""

"Barcelona had chances to score in the game but lacked a cutting edge in front of goal and were then undone when Pau Cubarsi was sent off and Julian Alvarez scored a free-kick."

"Despite being down to 10 men, Barcelona pushed hard for an equaliser in the second half, but conceded again when Alexander Sorloth scored the visitors' second."

Emmanuel Petit criticized Barcelona's performance after their 2-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid in the Champions League. Goals from Julian Alvarez and Alexander Sorloth put Atletico in a strong position for the semi-finals. Petit noted that Barcelona has not learned from past mistakes, particularly regarding their high defensive line. Despite having scoring opportunities, Barcelona struggled to convert and faced further challenges after Pau Cubarsi's red card. They continued to seek an equalizer but conceded a second goal to Sorloth.
