JAKARTA - Guillermo Amor, Barcelona's director of institutional relations, tries to cheer himself up after Los Blaugarana were eliminated from the Copa del Rey, Thursday, February 7. He said Barca still had a chance to win LaLiga Santander and the Champions League this season.
Atletico Bilbao were able to beat Barcelona at San Mames 1-0 thanks to Inaki Williams' injury time goal, although the federation claimed Sergio Busquets had scored an own goal. This defeat came after the Catalan club was hit by an internal crisis due to a dispute between captain Lionel Messi and club director Eric Abidal.
"The feeling is that (Wednesday) the president (Josep Maria Bartomeu) spoke with Leo and Eric and that everything was resolved internally," Amor said, telling Marca.
"We are all here to work and unite. Especially when something goes wrong, you have to unite. Nobody is above the club, and together we solve problems," continued the former Barcelona and Fiorentina player.
Amor then tried to cover up his disappointment by saying the Catalan club still had two other titles to win this season.
"We have other competitions; we have LaLiga [Santander] and the Champions League," he concluded.

In line with Amor, coach Quique Setien believes everything is going well for his team, apart from the final result last night.
"Everything went well except for the result," Setien explained in his post-match press conference.
"It's sad to be knocked out, but I think we've made progress in what we need to improve on. I will take more from this game than the result."
