Their manager Xavi was understandably displeased with the result, and he did not hold back in slamming his team’s prolificacy in front of goal. Speaking to the press after the game (via Tribal Football), Xavi said:

He added:

Xavi was also frustrated with his team allowing Bayern to score from a set piece among other mistakes.

He added:

The eventual loss was painful for Barcelona, especially because they had more chances and possession than Bayern Munich. However, Bayern only needed moments of brilliance to open the scoring and eventually win the game while picking up a clean sheet to boot.

Lucas Hernandez opened the scoring for Bayern Munich when he headed home a corner from Joshua Kimmich in the 50th minute. Leroy Sane doubled Bayern Munich’s lead four minutes later.
