Barça: Pedri takes a swipe at Real Madrid after comeback win at Levante | OneFootball

Pedri

Pedri fired a shot at Real Madrid following FC Barcelona’s dramatic comeback victory on Levante’s turf (2-3).

Faced with Levante’s trap on Saturday night, Barça managed to escape unscathed. After the match, Pedri was asked about a key moment and didn’t hesitate to recall a situation involving Aurélien Tchouaméni during last season’s Clasico against Real Madrid.

"The handball? Honestly, I don’t know. Not long ago, they gave us a lecture at the federation about handballs. For me, Tchouaméni’s hand last season at Montjuïc was a clear handball, while here, in my opinion, it wasn’t, and yet they allowed it. They scored twice and the match became tough, but I appreciate the team’s reaction, because when we’re behind, we know we’re capable of coming back (...) I think the second goal was my mistake, because I went to ground and wasn’t decisive. I should’ve either stopped the attack or taken the ball. Then there was the penalty, and that’s the referee’s decision. But it was my error, and we need to improve on these transitions, especially when tracking back.", said the young Spanish midfielder.
