Eric Garcia has sent out a defiant message to Barcelona fans in the wake of Tuesday’s humbling defeat to Chelsea in the Champions League.
The Spain star and Pau Cubarsi took time out at the end of the game to go over and applaud the travelling supporters despite being on the end of a heavy defeat.
Eric has now taken to social media and is refusing to give up hope of automatic qualification to the knockout stages just yet.
He wrote on Instagram: “We have 3 matches left to add the 9 points and be where the club deserves. Thank you to everyone who came to London, we felt you close!”
Barcelona’s next three games in the competition are against Eintracht Frankfurt, Club Brugge and FC Copenhagen. It’s thought that victory in all three games should be just enough to secure a place in the top eight of the standings.
