Xavi finished proudly, despite the setback. \u201cWe have dominated 60 minutes, but this is football. You don’t make it 2-0… and Madrid, with two and a half, scores two goals.” And he left the phrase that will be so talked about these days: \u201c Maybe I exaggerate a little, but I think we deserved the victory\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He absolved Gil Manzano of any blame (\u201c today we did not lose because of the referee, but because we were not effective \u201d) and downplayed his affair with Vinicius . \u201cLet the fans know that I am frustrated, angry, because I think it has been unfair ,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-What happened in the second part?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The game changed after 60′. Then came the fatigue from the high blood pressure… And a shame, because we had dominated the game. The key was effectiveness. If we had scored 2-0, we would have won.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you frustrated about losing this Classic?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, but that’s football. When you are not effective against a team like Madrid, you pay for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the outlook now…<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The message is this. This is long, we are on matchday 11. Losing to Madrid is not a satisfaction, we have to continue. We have taken a step forward in the game. It’s time to keep rowing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What happened to Vinicius?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

That it wasn’t a mistake. Always with respect. You will never see me doing anything in bad faith, please. I told him it wasn’t a fault and I gave him a caress. Nothing else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
