Xavi unhappy with ‘serious defensive mistakes’ after Barcelona’s draw with Inter

Xavi Hernandez has shared his thoughts on Barcelona’s Champions League campaign after seeing his side held to a costly 3-3 draw against Inter.

The results means Barcelona look destined to head out of the group stages and into the Europa League for a second straight season.

Inter will qualify with a win over Viktoria Plzen next time out and Xavi feels his team have been hard done by in Europe’s top competition.

“The truth is that this Champions League is being cruel to us. From Munich, through Milan and tonight, we deserved more,” he said.
