Barcelona manager, Xavi Hernandez, has blamed referee, Istvan Kovacs for their Champions League exit.
Despite coming into the second leg of their quarter-final clash against Paris Saint-Germain with a 3-2 advantage, the LaLiga giants were eliminated in front of their fans.
Raphinha gave Barca the lead, before Kovacs sent off Ronald Araujo for a last-man tackle.
From then on, Ousmane Dembele, Vitinha and Kylian Mbappe (brace) scored to send PSG through.
Xavi, who also saw red in the game, said afterwards: Its a pity, our Champions League is over due to the referee’s mistake.
I just told the referee that hes been a disaster. Its the reality.”
