After the defeat, Gerardo Martino, who received a lot of criticism from the "Real Sociedad" team, did not lose authority, and his players are "ready to die" for the coach.

That's what "Barcelona" club midfielder Andrés Iniesta stated on Tuesday.

The Spaniard also categorically denied the rumors in the media that the Argentine allegedly has a hard time communicating with the footballers.

"The failure at Anoeta stadium was painful, but it does not mean that we have lost the opportunity to fight for the Spanish champion titles. The winner has not been determined yet, and we will fight until the end. No player in the team doubts the coach's decisions," assured Iniesta.

According to the midfielder, no one is immune to mistakes, and all the team's players must take responsibility for the defeat.

"Gerardo Martino did not seek any excuses after the match against "Real Sociedad" and said that he alone is to blame for the failure. However, I believe that everyone should take responsibility, and the blame for defeat cannot fall on one person. The team is ready to die for the coach. No one doubts that," emphasized the Spaniard.
