Barcelona coach Koeman: Lenglet blames himself

Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman admits Clement Lenglet blames himself for the penalty conceded in their draw with Cadiz.

The penalty given away by Lenglet is the latest incident he has been involved in this season, with another high-profile one coming in the Clasico defeat to Real Madrid, when he pulled Sergio Ramos' shirt in the box.

"I spoke to him this morning. He is serious, a very good professional, who is taking this very personally," Koeman said on Tuesday ahead of Wednesday's match at home to Elche.

"It's a play in which he can do better and it's true that he has been in some moments when we have made mistakes, but we have also made mistakes in attack and with other players.

"At 2-0, a play in the last minute is not so decisive. Nor can he accept that the entire problem is his own. He has to improve things, like any player."
