Analysis of the game "We had more numbers in the midfield in the first half, especially on the right, but we lacked punch. Madrid hardly had a chance in the first half and they only got a goal when the ball went in off a rebound. It's what they call the luck of the champions. We had too much respect for them and we failed to find space to really hurt them. Even so, we made more chances than they did, but just lacked that spark at the final moment. It was a pity that Kluivert's goal came too late." More chances than Madrid "We did everything we could, but things just didnt turn out right. It was only logical that we looked for more strength at the back, especially after the defeat against Malaga. We knew we had to fight back in the second half and the players gave everything they had. It's a blow for the lads, but that's the way things go. We created more chances and pushed for the win, but then they got their second goal". Shots on goal "It's true that we are missing goals, we had 12 chances and they only had 5 or 6. The Madrid players controlled the ball and passed well in attack, whereas we dont find that part easy. We have to get into the box more and shoot more". Everybody responsible "I'm responsible as much as the players- we all win and we all lose together. I'm very annoyed at our position in the table. We need to work hard to push up the table, but I'm sure we'll get into a good run. There's still plenty of games to go. There's no doubts amongst the team and we're determined to reach our objective, but first we need to win games. When something's not working, you really have to look for the way to put it right". Ronaldinho's return "We need to work for the next game. Ronaldinho has often been the guy who's made the difference and we'll be glad to have him back to help us. He brings us excitement and his ability can change a game for us". -- Visca Catalunya. Visca Barcelona. --
