Might have been another game. I don't think Barca did enough for anyone to say they played well.
Zidane didn't say it to leave an impression that he's satisfied. Clearly wasn't and said you pay for the mistakes you make.
But yes, doesn't really matter if you say it once. Except Setien is kinda famous for saying dumb shit publically.
In an away tie they in CL where Barca have struggled they played well and were the better side so not outlandish.
For Zidane to state Real played very well at home to Man City is ridiculous. They were by far the second best side in that game.
What else has Setien said that think is so dumb?
Comments after Napoli game from Setien are below.... Not as if he was doing cartwheels and trying to make out Barca were magnificent.
“It’s a good result, although we had to work really hard to create goal-scoring opportunities,” said the coach in his press conference after a 1-1 draw.
“Napoli found the net with their only real chance of the first half. We weren’t sharp enough to break through the defensive wall that Napoli erected.
“After the equaliser, they opened up a little and we were able to hurt them more. They played very well and it was not easy, so a score draw is fine going into the second leg.
“It was a difficult match and I congratulate my players on the result, but we must be sharper against defensive teams. It’s a matter of patience.
“We will have more options in the second leg, as it’s unlikely a team will be able to defend for that long at Camp Nou. We’ve got to think positive and cannot complain.”
