Pique said this is the first time since joining Barcelona he feels inferior to Real Madrid after Zinedine Zidane’s side claimed the Spanish Super Cup on Wednesday.
First-half goals from Marco Asensio and Karim Benzema, coupled with Sunday’s 3-1 victory at Camp Nou, gave Real Madrid a 5-1 aggregate win, securing the club’s seventh trophy since Zidane took charge.
The Spain international defender, who was taken off in the second half with an injury and will undergo tests on Thursday, subsequently conceded that Barcelona are struggling on and off the pitch.
He told reporters, “In the nine years I’ve been [at Barca], it’s the first time I feel inferior to Madrid.
“We’re not having our best time as a team or a club. We should all be as close to each other as possible and move forward.
“We must live with this defeat and accept that Madrid are better than us [at the moment], but the season’s very long and there’s room for improvement.”
