Barcelona captain, Lionel Messi has blamed himself and his teammates
for their UEFA Champions League 4-0 defeat to Liverpool at Anfield last
season.
Barcelona blew a three-goal lead in the second leg of their Champions
League semi-final encounter against the Premier League giants.
Jurgen Klopp’s side ran out 4-0 winners to reach the Champions League final, which they went on to win 2-0 against Tottenham.
“The Liverpool thing was our fault,” Messi told RAC 1 on Wednesday.
“It came after the Roma incident. We got a mental block as the Rome defeat came to mind.
“We got worse and worse and it wasn’t because of the coach.
“The club decided that he should continue and I think that for
everyone it was a joy because we support him and love him, like Luis
Enrique or the coaches who came before him.”
