The Spaniard’s mistake gave United a mountain to climb at Camp Nou (Picture: Getty)Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea was ‘inconsolable’ after his howler saw Barcelona progress to the semi-finals of the Champions League, apologising to his teammates. Although none of his teammates blamed De Gea for the mistake – and he is certainly in credit after saving United countless times – he nevertheless blames himself for the loss. When you make an error it can get highlighted and that’ll be remembered tonight. ‘You know when you get to this level you cannot slip up and you cannot make mistakes and you’ve got to take the chances you get yourself. And we didn’t capitalise on our great chance, but then they have their first two shots on target, that’s two goals and game over.’
