Barcelona manager Gerardo Martino admits that his side lacked creativity during their defeat to Spanish rivals Atletico Madrid.

Barcelona manager Gerardo Martino has admitted that his side were short on ideas during Wednesday evening's 1-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid in the Champions League.

The La Liga champions crashed out of the competition at the quarter-final stage 2-1 on aggregate after Koke scored the only goal of the second leg.

"There were times we couldn't do what we wanted to do or what we had to do with clear ideas," Martino told Canal+. "Whenever there's a result there's a reason for it.

"They took their chance in the first 20 minutes. Maybe if we'd have scored we'd have changed the game."

The draw for the Champions League semi-finals will take place on Friday.
