Koeman revesls he was unhappy with Blaugrana's 1st-half outing vs Betis

Ronald Koeman says the team looked slow in the first half.

Barca won the game thanks to their mentality and class, he notes.

"The first half wasn't really good. We have to put in more effort to break down the opposition defence. When we lost the ball, we reacted slowly. I didn't see a spark in Barca's performance in the first half," Ronald Koeman has told Movistar after the 3-2 win over Real Betis.

"We won the match thanks to the team's mentality and class," the Dutchman added.

Barca attempted no shots on target in the first half against Real Betis. Things looked much better after the break as Pedri and Leo Messi entered the game, with the latter scoring Barca's first goal of the night 2 minutes after coming on.
