Henry: The Referee Didn't Help

The Frenchman had little good to say about Pérez Burrull, who he felt contributed to his side's Clásico defeat the Bernabéu.

""It's a tough scoreline to take, but the referee didn't help," he told Sport.es.

"We did not play a great game, but during their first goal there was a foul on Márquez, and it was the same case over the course of the game."

However, he stated that it was not the best of nights for the blaugrana even aside from the referee's contribution.

"This is a very difficult time for we players," admitted the ex-Arsenal man.

Looking Ahead

The blaugrana have now surrendered their chance of second place, being seven points behind Villarreal with two games remaining.

Nonetheless, the French international wants to close the season on a high, starting with victory at San Moix at the weekend.

"Now what we need to do is to close the campaign as best we can be winning on Sunday," he insisted.

"Season goals? I always start a campaign wanting to win titles. With Juventus, France and Arsenal, I've never aimed for anything but."
