After being beaten 1-0 in the first leg of the semi-final tie, the Blaugrana were held to a 2-2 draw at Camp Nou in the return match, and the attacking midfielder expressed his disappointment with the outcome.
"Football has been unjust in this tie. That's just the way it is. We once again dominated the match, but little things can be decisive in football," Iniesta stated to Barca TV.
"Barcelona will be back, though. We play football because we love what we do, and we do it for those who always support us and suffer as much as we do."
The Camp Nou side resume domestic action on Sunday when they travel to Rayo Vallecano.
