Jules Kounde Takes Accountability for Team Performance in Barcelona’s Victory

Following Barcelona’s 3-1 triumph against Unionistas, Jules Kounde addressed the media, emphasizing player responsibility by stating, “The players are responsible for what is happening. You can talk about the coach, but in the end, we are the ones who play. I think this year we are lacking intensity and forcefulness.”

It’s a positive sign to witness players owning up to their role in the team’s challenges. While acknowledging that there’s shared responsibility, including accountability for Xavi, Kounde highlights the crucial role players play in steering the team in the right direction.

Kounde, who scored a remarkable goal against Unionistas and showcased solid defensive prowess, contributed significantly to Barcelona’s victory. Despite a shaky first-half performance, Barcelona managed to secure a win against the third-tier Unionistas side, demonstrating their ability to overcome obstacles. The team has encountered a mixed bag of results lately, losing three out of their last nine matches across all competitions.
