Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman was delighted with victory over Sevilla.

Koeman commended the defensive work of his players as crucial in achieving a 2-0 win over Sevilla at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan.

The visitors started with three centre-backs and two wing-backs in Nervion - a formation they stuck with for the whole 90 minutes.

"We tried to press our opponent but playing with three centre-backs and high wing-backs," Koeman said at full time.

"It made it easier for us to stop Sevilla playing. That was the key.

"It was a risky system. Without the ball, we pressed, we tried to play man to man.

"Our game without the ball was key. It was a very complete match."
