Barcelona
Barcelona's Frenkie de Jong speaking after the game: "I thought we deserved to win. We had the chances to do that, but you have to score the goals. I think we played well, but we haven't won the game. We had so many opportunities. Their goalkeeper had a very good game."
On the offside goals: "If it's offside it's offside. I haven't seen it. I spoke to the fourth official and said it wasn't offside, but if offside is given then it's offside.
"The only thing I can say is you can't ralk to this referee. I tried to speak to him but he looked at me with a face to say 'why are you talking to me'. Very frustrating."
On if they lost because of the referee: "No. We missed so many chances. That's the most disappointing thing."
