âWe had two injuries in the first half, and that affected the team.
âWe fought together, but we gave away easy balls; we have to do much better because we have the quality,â he said.
Barcelona also struggled to assert control, something Flick made clear needs immediate improvement as the title race intensifies.
âWe have to control the game. They usually press us high up the field with intensity, but they can also sit deep defensively.
âItâs not easy to create chances. We gave away easy balls,â he insisted.
The match could have been more comfortable for Barcelona had Ferran Torresâ second-half strike not been ruled out for offside, a decision that clearly frustrated Flick.
He revealed that, based on what he saw, the goal should have stood and would have eased late pressure on his side.
âMy feeling is that itâs a goal. Iâd like an explanation as to why itâs offside,â he noted.
Adding to the controversial VAR decision, Flick made it clear that he remains unconvinced, even if he accepts the outcome.
âI donât understand why VAR decided it wasnât a goal. These things worry me. The referee and the fourth official would see it the same way I do.
âTheyâve made a decision, but we have to accept it. I donât want to make excuses. In the final minutes, we had to play with more intelligence.â

There was also concern surrounding Lamine Yamal, who picked up an injury during the match. Flick chose to remain cautious rather than speculate on the severity.
âWeâll have to see him tomorrow to see whatâs going on. Weâll have a clear diagnosis.
âItâs not easy; we have to take care of him. Itâs a shame for us, just like with Joao Cancelo.
âCanceloâs injury doesnât seem to be serious, but weâll have to wait and see,â he acknowledged.
When pressed further on Yamalâs condition, Flick reiterated the uncertainty while highlighting the broader challenges his squad is facing.
âI think Iâve already answered that. I think he has an injury, but weâll have to wait and see how long heâll be out. I canât say anything else. We have to wait.
âAs a coach, you have to manage these things. Itâs a shame that Lamine got injured now, but Iâm also thinking about Raphinha, Bernal, and Christensen.
âNow we have to focus on Getafe. I wouldnât say Iâm upset; Iâm thinking about a lot of things. We fought hard,â he concluded.
