“I am really upset and really sad because we created many chances. We missed many opportunities. I think that’s what has happened all season.

“It’s what has happened all season. We need to keep going, it’s just one point, which is not enough for us. It’s a pity because we played so well to win this game,” Xavi said after the game.
