Flick yelled at the players that they deserved to be on the back foot with even more goals, and called for a radical change of attitude in the second half. An outburst not seen in his year and a half at the helm of the Catalan team.

In the second half Barcelona fought back, although they were no longer able to find the net. According to rumors, a tough face-off was held between the coaching staff and the team on Friday.

Flick accused his players of a lack of d’intensity and commitment. He spoke of apathy, and of being unable to explain the blackout they had against Atletico.

Various stars would, however, respond to the German coach, questioning his risky tactical approach. In particular, players pointed to Flick&#8217s desired defensive arrangement, which has always called for a very high defense, so as to repeatedly catch opposing attackers offside.

A risky system, especially with Europe&#8217s top clubs and with teams of high technical caliber such as Atletico Madrid. This season, the Catalans lost narrowly to Chelsea and at home to PSG, while last year they were eliminated from the Champions League after conceding a total of 7 goals in the two clashes against Inter.

Flick after the game against Atletico expressed himself this way: “At halftime to the team I spoke in no uncertain terms. There’s been a total absence of intensity, focus and competitive spirit. It was not a performance at the’height of our level”.
