Barcelona had to labour to get a point in their encounter with Atlectico Bilbao at the Camp No after surprisingly trailing just before the half time break.
The Spanish champions who rested talisman, Lionel Messi, was below their usual best in the encounter and they could have conceded more goals during the second half but they away side were wasteful.
Messi was however sent into the fray deep into the second half and his individual brilliance carved the away side’s defence ope. He went on to set up the equalizing goal in the 88th minute but there wasn’t enough time to get the winning goal.
The match eventually ended 1-1.
As a result of this result, Barcelona fans have been on social media calling out the tactician.

And Barca has clearly lost it's fear factor. Our passing is slow and sluggish. There is no clear postional play. Bilbao are pressing better than we do. No one except Suarez tries to run in behind the defence consistently. Dembele needs to learn to release the ball quicker.
