Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman was pleased with their 3-2 win at Athletic Bilbao on Wednesday night.
Leo Messi scored twice in the San Mames thriller.
Koeman expressed his satisfaction at his team's dominance of the game after initially going behind to Inaki Williams' goal.
"The final result is a bit short because we were better in many phases," Koeman said.
"They went 1-0 up and we didn't have defensive coordination, but then we controlled [the game].
"I leave happy with the result and how we achieved it.
"We deserved to win for our play and the opportunities [we created]. The team did a fantastic job."
Barcelona move into third place in the table with the win and are now seven points of leaders Atletico Madrid.
"We're going to fight until the last game," Koeman said on the title race.
"There's a gap [to the top] but we're on the right path."
