Scorer of the last two goals in our 5-0 win against Real Sporting de Gijón, Fernando Torres analysed the red and white victory: "The line that we were following in the previous weeks was the correct one, creating chances to score, playing on the rival’s field, and when this happens, and the goals don’t enter, it’s chance, we have always followed the same line since the beginning.”

"The team is doing well, it’s confident and we now have the most complicated game we have had up til now," the forward from Madrid went on, sharing the same thought as his teammate Koke: "It’s been a very good week with three victories in Vigo, Eindhoven, and at home. This goes on, we have done nothing yet and now it’s the turn of Barcelona," the midfielder said.

A rival, Barça, which Diego Godín also mentioned: "We will have to be 120% concentrated, because their players are very good. We know the quality that FC Barcelona has, it has been proving it for many years, it has plenty of quality at the top and has a great defence. This Saturday, we have found, beyond the work, a feeling, and goals, which is good for our forwards. Great start of Gameiro and Griezmann, then Torres entered from the bench and was very energetic, and that speaks well of the commitment and how well everyone is," stressed the Uruguayan defender.
