Barcelona triumphed in "El Clasico" against Real Madrid, thus taking an important step towards the championship title in this edition.

The 2-1 success was as important as it was special about the way it came about, with Xavi's side not giving up and turning things around in the last breath.

After the challenge, the attention shifted to the coaches, with Xavi Hernandez who immediately sought to remove the euphoria from his team by expressing himself happy for the success, but he and the team do not feel like champions yet.

"We don't feel like champions yet, but it's a very important step for us. The match was perfect and we deserved this victory. We were superior and the players deserved this success, not only for what they gave against Real, but for the whole season. The result was right and I am happy. Everyone runs, works, and this ultimately brings results. It is something that makes us proud. We have registered a lot of points and this means that the team is working very well. I think that in this meeting we showed not only that we are very strong in attack, but that we are also very solid in defense. Now we have to look ahead, other challenges are waiting for us, the championship is still long" - concluded Xavi.

Barcelona already leads with 68 points, 12 more than second place Real Madrid and the Catalans are on the right track to return to the championship title, a title that has been missing since the 2018/2019 season.
