agreed....fatigue i think the big factor contribute to the defeat.... not to give excuses but come on... we had less recovery time for...u know why..
when u're tired....ur easy to lose concentration and made mistakes and lose the ball... thats what i saw last night... i feel sorry for the player... i woudlnt blame them...
i know the player will bounce back at nou camp... rest assured of that...
Its not just an excuse, it is a fact. 1000km travel by bus is unthinkable these days, for constantly busy professionals. Let alone athletes.
Several reasons why we lost:
1) Defense line was too deep - we only rectified this in the last 15 minutes, when we have more of the ball, and when we threatened Inter most.
2) No pressuring by forwards, even Pedro - cause: fatigue, whatever Pep would ever say in the press.
3) Not enough off the ball movements - Xavi and Busquets combination was effected the most. Well, mostly it was Busquets who tend to be static. Again, I believe it was down to fatigue.
I'm not playing down Inter's tactical brilliance, but c'mon, Barca would have never threatened any team if they move the ball with such snail-pace passes.
I expect the players fully recover for the 2nd leg and show what they really got.

how they come back to Barca, by bus or flight, hope they use flight this time bcos they need rest before Liga game this weekend
IINM, they will return by bus too. Have Europe airports already started operating back? I think by now the delegates are already on their way back to Catalunya.
