On Sunday evening Barcelona managed to collect maximum points against Sevilla FC by trashing the opponent by 4-1.
Their victory took them to position 3rd with 48 points one point behind Atletico Madrid and two points behind log leaders Real Madrid with equal match.
After yesterday’s outcome Barcelona midfielder Pedri, was left shocked after being played rough by the opponent and opponent didn’t receive red card.
The Tenerife-born player compared Fermin’s red card to a tackle(injury)he sustained during their fixture against Alaves.
Pedri said “I tell the referee that the other day I suffered a worse one and it wasn’t a red card. I don’t understand it. But they are the ones who see it. If they showed a red card, they should always give it.”
Pedri went on to emphasize that he is happy that he is getting game time and highlighted that they want to catch up with those two teams above them.
He said “Maybe. I am very comfortable, having a lot of playing time and enjoying myself on the field.
“We had a slump in La Liga. We wanted to continue with the streak and those above us had drawn. We had to take the three points.
“We started very well, with a lot of intensity on the ball, but their goal came and they pushed forward.
“In the second half, we scored and it gave us a big advantage. It’s also possible to keep possession with one man down.”
Pedri will be hoping to get more minutes when his side will be up against Rayo Valloceno on Monday 17th February 2025 and kickoff set at 22:00.
