BARCELONA (Reuters) - Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde believes he and his players have faced excessive criticism for their shock 2-1 defeat by lowly Leganes while also saying his side need to improve after dropping five points in their last two La Liga games.
The champions, who did not lose last season until their 37th game, fell to their first defeat of the campaign by conceding two goals in the space of two second-half minutes after Philippe Coutinho had given them the lead.
