Koeman says Barcelona are getting ‘closer to winning big games’ after Clasico defeat

Ronald Koeman reckons his Barcelona team are getting closer to winning some big games after losing 2-1 to Real Madrid on Sunday in La Liga.

The Dutchman oversaw yet another defeat in a key fixture and has become only the second coach in history to lose his first three Clasicos.

Koeman says Barca proved on Sunday that “we’re not inferior” to Real Madrid and also seems to think his team are heading in the right direction.

Here’s what he had to say in his post-match press conference.

“Of course we have to demand that we win these games,” he said.
