While speaking to La Sexta immediately after the 2-0 victory, this is what Lionel Messi said:
“Will this win Barcelona the league? There are still many games left to go. We have some tough away encounters, but yes, we took a big and important step tonight.
“It was a close game because both teams respect each other a lot, and we both know each other well so there’s certainly a lot of respect. But when we had chances we took them, and that is the reason why we won.”
