Sergio Busquets: It’s always hard after the international break

Barcelona captain Sergio Busquets shared his thoughts on his team’s hard-fought win over Real Mallorca on Saturday.

A single goal from Robert Lewandowski handed the visitors all three points and Busquets admitted it’s always a tough job returning to club football after being away with the national team.

“We would have loved to have won by more but it’s always difficult after the international break,” he said.

“They were very strong on the first half. I think in the second half we were more patient and we had the game under control, but when you only have one goal you are only one goal from drawing the match.
