“I have warned Hansi Flick about that particular player, he refused to bench him, He keeps causing problems to the teams, He caused the Fourth Goal Denied us the Champions League Finals spot”: Barcelona Ex Manager Xavi names ONE player who doesn’t deserve to start for Barcelona, warned Flick about the unforgivable mistake

Ronald Araujo’s performance in the game between Barcelona and Inter Milan was subpar, despite making three crucial clearances after being substituted into the match in the second half. Throughout his time on the pitch, Araujo struggled to make an impact, being dribbled past once and failing to make his presence felt when Inter scored the winning goal in extra time.

Araujo’s overall stats for the game were unimpressive, winning just one of his ground duels and committing two fouls. Given his struggles, it’s possible that Barcelona’s coach, Hansi Flick, might have reconsidered bringing Araujo on in the game if he had known how the match would unfold.

Araujo’s lack of influence on the game was notable, particularly in key moments. When Inter scored the winning goal in extra time, Araujo was seemingly out of position, and his team ultimately lost the match 4-3 on the night, with Inter advancing 7-6 on aggregate.

Despite Araujo’s efforts to make an impact through clearances, his overall performance was marred by his struggles in one-on-one situations and his limited ability to control the tempo of the game. As a result, his substitution might have been a tactical decision that didn’t quite pay off for Barcelona.

In retrospect, Araujo’s performance highlights the challenges that teams face when trying to adapt to different opponents and game situations. While he made some positive contributions, his overall display was not enough to change the course of the game [2].
