Barcelona captain Raphinha expressed frustration following a surprising 2-1 home defeat to Las Palmas in La Liga.
Despite scoring in the second half, his effort was insufficient to secure a comeback as Barcelona fell further behind in the title race, with Real Madrid closing in.
Raphinha criticized Las Palmas' tactics, accusing them of time-wasting and disrupting the game flow, especially in the second half, where he claimed only 30 minutes of actual play occurred. Despite these concerns, no yellow cards were issued during the match.
Barcelona now aim to rebound from this setback with upcoming matches against Mallorca on December 3 and a critical clash with Real Betis on December 7 as they strive to regain momentum in the title race.
