The fallout from Barcelona's shock 2-1 defeat to Girona has taken a dramatic turn following a night of officiating chaos at the Estadi Montilivi. While Hansi Flick’s side surrendered a crucial lead and slipped behind Real Madrid in the Liga title race, the post-match narrative has been dominated by a controversial winning goal from Fran Beltran. The Blaugrana are now fuming over what they perceive as a systemic bias, leading to an explosive "against everyone" rallying cry from within the dressing room.
'I stepped on him' - Echeverri admits Kounde foul as Girona beat Barca
Girona star Claudio Echeverri has confessed he may have fouled Jules Kounde in the buildup to Fran Beltran’s decisive goal during Monday's fiery Catalan derby. Barcelona were left fuming as the 86th-minute strike stood despite a VAR check, eventually falling to a 2-1 defeat at Montilivi. The result sees Hansi Flick's side slip two points behind Real Madrid in the title race, as Lamine Yamal's penalty miss proved costly on a night of intense controversy.
Flick blasts Barca mistakes but refuses to blame referee for shock loss
Hansi Flick refused to blame a controversial refereeing decision for Barcelona's shock 2-1 defeat to Girona, instead lamenting his side's defensive errors. The Blaugrana took the lead through Pau Cubarsi but crumbled late on, with Fran Beltran netting a controversial winner after a potential foul on Jules Kounde. The result leaves Barca trailing Real Madrid in the title race, compounding a miserable week after their 4-0 Copa del Rey defeat against Atletico Madrid.
