Xavi: "Barcelona is now a contender for the championship title"

The head coach of "Barcelona" Xavi commented on the victory in the match of the 16th round of the Spanish championship with "Atletico".

"The first half hour convinced me that we have everything under control. We took three gold points. We were under pressure, but we suffered and played to zero. Such is this sport. Today we didn't play in the best way, but we got three points. I think it's not just three points, because they will give fighting spirit and a lot of confidence. Now we have become contenders to win La Liga," AS quoted Xavi as saying.
