Imanol: “It had been a long time since I saw Barça play like this”

Defeat analysis: “The feelings are ambiguous because I didn't like the first half at all, I fully assume responsibility. In the second half we saw the real Real. We are proud of the team's reaction.”

Errors of the Real: “I have not made it clear how we wanted to push and continue to insist. Barça has been much superior and I have to take responsibility. Then we have seen our best version, when we go to you, without fear. They have forgiven us in the first half” .

Ter Stegen saves: “Remiro has also done them. They have been more effective”

A great first part of the Barça: “It had been a long time since I saw Barcelona play like this in the first 45 minutes. That speaks very well of the respect they had for us. In the second half it was noticed that they did not have that energy and we have been able to make our game more. if we are able to give continuity to all the good we are doing. It costs a lot to win the games. “

Januzaj: “Surely he has a break and will be separated for at least two or three weeks. It is one more, but all the teams are having them. There are no excuses and we face it. Oyarzabal is close to returning, I hope Silva too. the next”.

He also spoke at a press conference: “We have seen Messi putting his foot in …”

“We have seen the best Barcelona of a long time on a defensive level, aggressiveness and intensity. That speaks well of them and the respect they had for this game. They have come out with that aggressiveness that has not been seen for a long time and then they have accused him. Even putting ourselves ahead, something that was not fair because they passed us over in that first part “, analyzed Alguacil at a press conference.

“We have not believed it and if you do not believe it here it is very complicated. We have even seen Messi throwing himself to the ground stealing balls, putting his foot in, which is rarely seen“added the team coach 'txuri urdin'. However, Alguacil did highlight the performance of his players in the second half.” In the second half we have made enough merits to be able to tie. Now we have to learn from the first part, try to improve and give continuity to everything we have done during the year, “he said.

“We have had them very clear, they have been several, but Barcelona have also had them and they are one of the best teams in the world. They have also failed them and very clear. It is effectiveness and in that sense it is costing us. It's part of football, but if it is difficult for Barça to have the best players, imagine yourself before us. The important thing is to have them, “he said.

“They knew of our potential, we are a team that has played very good games and we are up there because we deserve it. What's more, I think we lack points. We leave sad for the defeat and half happy because in the first half we have not seen the Real as always. We will continue insisting, we have two games left before the break (for Christmas), with the utmost enthusiasm, ambition and humility, “he concluded.
