Barca Corner Problem Is Simply Minor,says Mathieu

The goals scored David Luiz and Marco Verratti both stemmed from Barca's inability to deal with dead-ball deliveries and Mathieu admitted that the Liga outfit can sometimes be caught out in the air.
 Do you agree with him that that its not a major problem?


"We conceded two goals from set-pieces and that killed the game a little," the defender told reporters after the game at the Parc des Princes.

"It's Barca's minor weakness – we need to correct that.
"The game came down to small details in the end. We came up against a good Paris team who played their hand very well.

"It was a pretty intense match, and quite a spectacle. We'll have our lift ourselves up again quickly."
Mathieu's fellow defender, Dani Alves, also believes there is no reason for Barca's players to be too down after their first defeat of the season.

"We're disappointed with the result but not so much the performance, as there were a lot of positives," the Brazil international argued.

"We knew it would be a difficult game against a team that plays in a similar style to us. Now we have to make sure we beat Ajax."
