"Barcelona" team strategist Ernesto Valverde remained very calm after the victory against Madrid's "Atletico", which practically guaranteed the "La Liga" title.
"Barca" beat "Atletico" 2:0 on Saturday and now holds an 11-point lead over the second position with seven games left until the end of the "La Liga" championship.
"These were important three points," said E. Valverde. "We are closer to the title, but nothing is finished yet. Of course, it was very important to win against our closest rivals, who really caused us a lot of problems today."
The Catalans will not have long to rest - on Wednesday they have a UEFA Champions League match against "Manchester United". E. Valverde stated that their focus will now be on this match, but he did not forget to mention the almost secured Spanish league title.
"We have very important matches in the Champions League, and then we will shift our focus to 'Huesca'. We want to win all possible titles, but after today's match, we will concentrate on the Champions League."
