Xavi explains what Barcelona were lacking against Osasuna

Xavi Hernandez felt his Barcelona team were lacking several aspects after beating Osasuna 2-1 on Sunday in La Liga.

Jules Kounde headed the visitors in front before Chimy Avila levelled with a brilliant curling effort. However, a Robert Lewandowski sealed the victory and all three points.

Here’s what Xavi made of it all:

“We lacked game, patience, and generating more in attack. We had to roll up our sleeves, we suffered, but we earned it. It’s always very difficult at El Sadar. I am pleased with the team’s attitude. They are a very intense and direct team,” he said.
