Is Barcelona overrated? Piqué, the centre-back admitted that ‘it’s a very bad result. When Milan scored their first goal we lost focus’.

Gerard Piqué was very disappointed with last night’s game at san Siro but refused to blame the referee despite the controversial Milan’s opening goal: “Referees can make mistakes sometimes but there are no excuses. Not the referee, not the pitch, nothing”.

The Barcelona defender admitted that “it’s a very bad result. When they scored their first goal we lost focus. We have to improve, learn and wait for the return leg at the Camp Nou to qualify. Maybe we’re not as good as everyone said”.

Piqué didn’t want to make excuses for his team’s poor display and  praised Milan: “The San Siro is a tough stadium to play in and we know that Milan is a big club. We are Barcelona and we have to turn the tie around”.
