Oblak: We lacked offensive effectiveness, and Barcelona hurt us from the depth
Thursday 04-12-2025
Jan Oblak, Atletico Madrid's goalkeeper, expressed his regret over his team's loss to Barcelona, confirming that the rojiblancos had clear chances to equalize but failed to capitalize on them.

Oblak said: "In the end, we had two chances that could have given us the equalizer, we did not earn points and ended a good run of results, we have to move forward, keep our heads up, and continue."

The Atletico Madrid goalkeeper added: "We lacked offensive effectiveness, conceded two goals, and we should have scored to win the match. Barcelona played a great game and had clear chances they did not exploit. We tried and in the end got chances, but unfortunately, it was not possible."

He continued explaining the defensive weaknesses: "We struggled a lot, passes from deep areas went through very easily. We talked about this, but with the quality they have, they managed to find spaces and caused us significant damage with balls between the center-back and full-back."

Oblak's statements reflected the frustration after Atletico Madrid's loss, while confirming that the team is required to keep going and work on correcting mistakes in upcoming matches.
