FC Barcelona News: 11 April 2021; Barca react to Clasico defeat

Youngsters Mingueza, Araujo and Ilaix all played their first Clasicos on Saturday. Mingueza scored, Araujo was back after injury and Ilaix hit the crossbar late on.

Sergi Roberto said he was annoyed that VAR didn’t even review the incident between Ferland Mendy and Martin Braithwaite that led to appeals for a Barca penalty.

Lionel Messi was spotted shivering on the pitch in El Clasico as a storm raged in the second half before going on to change his shirt for a dry one on the touchline.

Former Spanish ref Eduardio Iturralde González felt that Barcelona should have been awarded a penalty when Ferland Mendy tugged at Martin Braithwaite in El Clasico.
