Barcelona coach Koeman abandoned tradition after Cadiz disappointment

Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman didn't hang around after their 1-1 draw with Cadiz.

Throughout the season he said Barcelona need to be more decisive upfront and careful at the back if they want to avoid suffering. The draw with Cadiz was the straw that broke the camel's back.

For the first time since becoming Barcelona coach the Dutchman went directly to the dressing room after the full-time whistle. He did not do his usual ritual of greeting the players one by one, until they went down the tunnel. That is how angry Ronald was.

In his press conference he said: "I am very disappointed, more than from last Tuesday."

The former Holland coach added: "If you don't kill games it's always possible you let in a last-minute goal. We didn't get the second goal and we paid a high price."
