With the Catalans scoring one of the two goals, Bayern conceded through Luiz Suarez, the other being an own goal courtesy David Alaba.
Pique has admitted that Barcelona need changes at every level, even if he has to leave.
“This is very painful but I hope it serves some purpose… We all need to reflect deeply, the club needs lots of changes, I’m not talking about the coach, players – I don’t want to point the finger at anyone, but the club needs changes on a structural level.
“If new blood needs to come for the club to change course, then I’m not untouchable, and I’ll be the first to leave if needs be because it seems as if we’ve hit rock bottom.
