Manchester United first team players staged scandalous and provocative celebrations for Barça fans after beating Barcelona in the Europa League.
During a press conference ahead of Barcelona’s match against Almería, the Barcelona manager was asked about controversial celebrations such as the celebration of Manchester United player Alejandro Garnacho, who posted a tweet that excited some Barcelona fans, or the famous Vinicius dance.
Xavi reacted to the Garnacho celebration
Xavi said: “It’s hard to answer this question, when a player is happy, he shows all kinds of anger and resentment towards you, everyone expresses their joy in any way they want.”
And the Barcelona coach continued: “I think you should celebrate with your teammates and not celebrate as a provocation to others.”
The Barcelona coach, as a player, was one of those who, along with Puyol, avoided provocative celebrations after a victory, always preferring respect for the opponent.
