The Blaugrana followed up their amazing midweek win with a shock defeat to Depor 

Luis Enrique was critical of Barcelona for dropping off at moments in the first half of their 2-1 loss against Deportivo La Coruna. 

Joselu took advantage of one of those moments late on in the first period to give the home side the lead at Riazor. 

Suarez did equalise for Barça, but a second Depor goal -- both goals coming from corners -- saw the Catalan side bumped back down to earth after the midweek heroics against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League. 

"I think we gifted them some moments at the end of the first half and that's football," Suarez said.

"When that happens, [the opposition] don't let you off. They're playing to stay up and we knew it was going to be really difficult. 

"They pushed, scored... but there's a lot of things we have to improve. Some days you win, today we lost." 

However, he didn't feel it had anything to do with the PSG game and insisted that the league title remains a target. 

He added: "No, the PSG game didn't take its toll. We had enough days of rest to be able to recover.

"We're not going to give up in the fight for La Liga. When you win you're not the best and when you lose it's not a dip in form."
