Former Barca midfielder Igor Korneev harshly criticized the Catalans’ defensive performance in the match against Espanyol in Round 18 of the Spanish league. This was reported by euro-football.rureports.
Despite the issues, Hans-Dieter Flick’s side won the away Catalan derby 2–0.
Full credit to Espanyol. I think they lost unfairly. Barcelona were saved by the players’ individual quality. But Barcelona’s defense played shamefully — a disgrace,” he said.
According to Korneev, Espanyol could have won this match by a big margin. However, Barcelona were rescued by goalkeeper Joan Garcia: he came from Espanyol and was met with strong disapproval from the home fans during the game.
