Barcelona skipper Andres Iniesta admitted his crushing disappointment after the Catalans were sent packing from the Champions League by Roma in sensational fashion on Tuesday. "It is very painful because nobody expected it with the lead we had," Iniesta told Catalunya TV. "When you do things badly, you commit lots of mistakes and we didn't adapt to the game.
