Enrique confronted a television reporter working for Catalan station TV3 after the match, whilst his tactics were criticised by Barca midfielder Sergio Busquets. Barcelona sports daily Sport's front cover said "this is not Barca," whilst Madrid-based AS's headline ran "total disaster." "It was a disastrous night for us in which we were clearly inferior," Enrique acknowledged after the game. "I accept responsibility, but I would also like the same respect and personal treatment in the interviews when we win," Enrique said in a fiery interview with TV3. The punishment dished out to Enrique was only further evidenced by the praise lavished on Emery in his homeland.
