Barcelona coach Xavi was happy after victory over Atletico Madrid.

Ferran Torres struck the only goal of the game on Sunday.

Xavi said, "We dominated, we had the second goal there for peace of mind but we did not take advantage of clear chances, which is why we suffered so much. It was a good game overall and I think we deserved to win by more than one goal.

"It doesn't bother me to win 1-0, not scoring more is part of the players' success and effectiveness."

On Atletico, he said: "They haven't lost since January, against us at the Metropolitano, and the victory is crucial.

"There is always criticism, it's normal after a 1-0, this is Bara.

"We wanted to win in front of the fans, who have supported us. We played against Atltico, which is always complicated."
