Luis Enrique: In Turin I did not make any mistakes
The coach says he takes full responsibility for the defeat but he did not make any wrong decisions
Juventus smashed Barcelona 3-0 in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final
Luis Enrique claims he made no tactical mistakes in Turin, as Barcelona lost 3-0 to Juventus in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final.
"I am in charge and I am responsible for the bad things which happen to the team," he said in a press conference on Friday.
"If I didn’t get my ideas across to players it’s because I’m incapable. I get angry when I don’t reach my objectives. But in Turin I did not make a single tactical error.
"I am the man that decides everything: two, three four at the back, wingers, whatever we do … it’s my responsibility, OK. But for a journalist it’s easy to say there were late goals because the team isn't fit, or the manager got tactics wrong… All kinds of things happen in a game which we won’t talk about in public, but players know, we work on these things. Unfortunately these things happen in football, it's a game with complexities."
