Barça got an important win against Viktoria Plzen. They dominated the game and managed to win 2-0, the fifth consecutive game without conceding any goals. Javier Mascherano gave credit to the whole team saying "we’re all working together, not just the defenders. The first to defend are the forwards".

The players had many chances to score but failed a bit in the definition. "The result is misleading, we deserved more goals" he said. The midfielder believes that this shouldn’t worry them and explained that "the fact we made mistakes when we’re not used to it is surprising, but it’s important to know that nothing is easy".

With this win FC Barcelona is second in the group table, tied on points with Milan, but they are aware that to qualify they have to take it game by game. Mascherano said: "Next we have to go and play at Viktoria, and as they showed today it won’t be easy to get a good result".

Here are other FC Barcelona players’ reflections:

Sergio Busquets:

"We dominated almost the whole game, we had lots of chances and they defended very deeply".

"The players who had the chances are not machines, and the most important thing is creating the chances, like we did today".

"The second goal by Villa gave us peace of mind".

David Villa

"We did the same thing as on other days, but we just didn’t finish as well".

"I’m pleased with the goal, it helped calm the situation. I’m happy to keep playing, and scoring".
