Flick maintains faith in Barcelona star despite costly error against Celta Vigo
On Saturday, Barcelona were bitterly disappointed as they fell without a win in La Liga for the second time in a row. After being 2-0 until the 84th minute, the Catalans eventually drew 2-2 against Celta Vigo in Balaidos, much to the anger of Hansi Flick.
Celta's first goal came after a big mistake from Jules Kounde, who took his share of the responsibility for the late collapse. However, Flick wanted to avoid placing the blame on one player, as he told the media after the match (via Sport).
“We are a team and if we lose, we all lose.”
Furthermore, the report states that Flick has not lost any confidence in Kounde, who he sees as an indispensable player. Overall, he was very pleased with the French defender's performance.
Barcelona will have to bounce back quickly from Saturday's disappointing result as they return to the Champions League in midweek, facing Stade Brestois at the Estadi Olimpic.
