Barcelona captain Sergi Roberto: Antwerp defeat really hacks me off

Barcelona captain Sergi Roberto admits they're struggling for confidence after their 3-2 Champions League defeat at Antwerp.

Barca had already qualified for the round of 16 going into the game.

Roberto said, "When your opponents score in the first minute it clearly makes you feel you're chasing them, chasing the scoreboard from the off.

"We came to win and so this result really hacks us off. Now we have to immediately shift our attention and mentality to La Liga where we can't afford to drop more points.

"We came to this match off a defeat and then went down so quickly, that affects you I think."
