BARCELONA (SPAIN) (ITALPRESS) – Hansi Flick, nearly in tears and “comforted” by Raphinha: this was the moment captured on camera yesterday at the end of Barcelona’s 3–1 win over Alavés. The episode raised several questions and even concern within the Blaugrana environment, but club sources contacted by Mundo Deportivo “ruled out any issues” and assured that the German coach “was simply angry about a couple of situations that occurred during the match.”
Specifically, Flick ended the game “irritated with the fourth official,” Álvaro Canovas Garcia-Villarrubia, due to the red cards shown for dissent to goalkeeping coach José Ramón de la Fuente and assistant coach Marcus Sorg — both of whom will now miss the upcoming Liga match against Atlético Madrid.
According to MD, another factor that infuriated Flick was the penalty not awarded to Lamine Yamal in the first half.
