Luis Enrique: "I think we deserved to win the game" | FC Barcelona

But he isn't worried because he liked the constant pressure his side generated and said that good football from their opponent and some other freak moments were what led to the loss. "It's time for us to pick ourselves up and focus on the next match," versus Ajax in the Champions League, this time in Amsterdam.


Luis Suárez: "We need to keep our heads up" | FC Barcelona

This is no Armageddon. After the loss to Celta, Luis Suárez sat down with Barça TV and said "we have to keep our heads up." He recognized that things have been "bittersweet" this week, with a win over Espanyol in the Catalan Super Cup sandwiched by losses at Real Madrid and tonight at home to Celta. "It's been nice, but the results haven't."


Rakitic: "Head held high and improve" | FC Barcelona

Ivan Rakitic was critical after the loss to Celta, but not overly dramatic. "Sometimes the ball won't go in, but that's nothing to get down about, we just have to keep working hard, see what happened, and get better." About the back-to-back losses: "Keep our heads up, work hard, and surely the ball will start to go in." Barça's next match is versus Ajax in Amsterdam, and Rakitic has no doubt about how they'll approach it. "We always play to win."

The playmaker found the net from close range as a lacklustre game entered its final 20 minutes, and it was enough to seal maximum points.
