Spanish football legend, Gerard Pique has expressed his disappointment with his former club Barcelona getting knocked out of the Europa League by Manchester United. Barcelona was leading at halftime, thanks to Robert Lewandowski’s 18th-minute penalty after Bruno Fernandes’ needless foul on Alejandro Balde. Brazilian duo Fred and Antony, who came on as a half-time substitutes for Manchester United, both drilled home low first-time shots in front of an ecstatic Stretford End. The second-half goals from Fred and Antony secured a memorable United win as the La Liga leaders were beaten 2-1 on the night and 4-3 on aggregate.
Pique who retired from football earlier this season, was following the match and was live on Twitch on the Kings League show at the full-time whistle. Following some of the comments from his team-mates, Pique was heard saying during the live stream, “It was a f*cking mess.”
