"There are many things to analyse," Enrique informedFourFourTwo. "But in a match in which the opponent closes down we have to control many areas and I think we did that.
"We had a very good match, reaching the heights demanded and generating spaces.In spite of the change of system of Alaves, we knew to take advantage of its spaces. It was a complete game in which we had half an hour left for everyone."
Vidal was left clutching his ankle in agony after an unintentional collision between himself and Alaves' Theo Hernandez.
"We knew from the outset that he really hurt himself," Luis Enrique said. "It's a shame for the player, the team and for Barca.

"Hopefully he will recover well, that I am sure he will. It is something serious but we have to wait for the analysis of the doctors.
"Aleix's exit troubled us. It is not nice to see a serious injury to a footballer, but he is in very good hands."
