Barcelona's Disappointing Loss to Almeria; Xavi's Call for Solutions

In today's episode, Barcelona suffered a lackluster performance, losing to Almeria, which Xavi labeled as the team's worst of the season. Despite having over 70% of the ball, they lacked intensity, passion, and a game plan, only managing one shot on target. Barcelona's attack is a concern, with several players not performing, and they resorted to an unsuccessful tactic of firing crosses into the box.
