Andres Iniesta is not over-the-top with Barca's victory over Celtic.


The Spanish star is rather looking ahead to closing the gap with Real Madrid at the top of the La Liga and has all his focus on the next Primera match. The Blaugrana thumped Celtic 3-2 away in Scotland a few days ago, and hope to thump Levante by a wider score margin this weekend. Iniesta, who was instrumental to Barca's victory, is urging his team mates not to remain in the ecstacy of their outstanding Champions League victory, but to let such a victory remain a boost for starting a winning streak that can see the Catalan gaints emerge winners in all remaining championships this season. Iniesta says:

We must not make the mistake of under rating Levante. The game on Sunday looks easy especially after the way we played in Glasgow. However we must forget about the Celtic game as it is over and from now on we must concentrate on the game against Levante. We have to work hard other wise we will suffer. The Celtic victory was good, but that is all in the past now. We must look ahead to matches ahead. The Glasgow win is like water under the bridge. There’s a long way to go in the league. The Cup is up next and we still have to ratify this result on 4th March when we play the return leg. I hope the victorious image continues and that we can play more games with the same good football.

The creative one however, does not resist the temptation to admire the performance of the super stars on a night they were at their best in Glasgow. Andres the dribbler says:

Yesterday’s match was one of the most complete games I can remember this season. Our comeback, our performance, the standard of football and the result were all so wonderful.

The Barca star ends with brushing aside the threat of Real Madrid who are the only team that can stop Barca from reclaiming their La Liga title won two seasons ago and lost last season. Iniesta says:

I don’t want to analyse the tendencies. We just want to carry on the same way because it’s non-stop with so many matches.

FC Barcelona are five points behind arch rivals Real Madrid and a win on Sunday's La Liga match will help close up the gap.
