Luis Suarez has said that Barcelona can no longer compete with Real Madrid for the 2019/2020 La Liga title.
He stated that Barcelona lost out of the race when they drew 2-2 against Celta Vigo.
Real Madrid now looks set to win their first La Liga title since 2016/2017.
“If you have to be honest, the league is almost impossible,” Suarez told Diario Sport.
“It is clear that the game against Sevilla [a goalless draw] is a game that makes things very difficult for you. We had options to get ahead.
“That day was important, but in Vigo [a 2-2 draw] it was key. We lost our great opportunity.
“If we had beaten Celta, we would have been better off against Atletico. The blow was in Vigo, the goal in the last minute from [Iago] Aspas. It hurt.
“Now we have to finish well and go for the Champions League.”
