Barcelona fans lash out at one of their stars after Girona defeat

Barcelona's 2-1 defeat against Girona has left fans furious. The team struggled to find rhythm in both attack and defense, but supporters singled out striker Ferran Torres , insisting he should not even be on the pitch .

The match reflected Barcelona's recent struggles: dominating possession and creating numerous chances , yet failing to convert. Their once-celebrated tiki-taka style no longer unsettles opponents.

After a quiet first half, Pau Cubarsí put Barça ahead in the 59th minute . But Thomas Lemar equalized in the 62nd, and Fran Beltrán sealed Girona's victory with a goal in the 86th minute.

Following the loss, coach Hansi Flick admitted:

We were very bad, especially in defense. Girona deserved the win.

Fans agreed wholeheartedly.

Torres becomes the scapegoat

Supporters blamed Barcelona's lack of attacking depth on Torres . Social media was flooded with harsh criticism:

While Torres disappointed , goalkeeper Joan Garcia stressed that the defeat was a collective failure.

Garcia's honest assessment

In his post-match interview, Garcia pointed out that an uncalled foul on Jules Kounde led directly to Girona's second goal .

Still, he emphasized broader defensive issues : "We are conceding way too many chances. My saves are worthless if we keep letting opponents through so easily."

Garcia concluded bluntly : "We had plenty of people in front. We should have cut the attacks before they advance so much. They were cutting through our defence so easily."
