Barca 94th minute late win deserved, says Enrique

Thegoalmac can reveal that Barcelona's 1-0 win over Valencia which came courtesy of a 94th minute goal from Sergio Busquets was a fair result, according to coach Luis Enrique.

For me, I doubt Barca's win was deserved, I think they were lucky and luck is part of football. But it shouldn't be what big teams should rely on all the time.

The question that people I want to ask you guys is, Enrique's choice of playing Mascherano and Busquets at the same time, good or bad call? See what Enrique said after the cut.


"I think we had a good game overall," he told reporters.
"We were lacking accuracy on a few occasions, but found the net in the end. Both teams had chances to win.

"We were fair winners. We had faith until the last second at a very difficult venue.
"It took us three attempts in the same phase of play to win the match. This result strengthens the team.

"Of course I'm happy with the team, barring the three points. We played against a very tough opponent, who pressed like very few teams.

"The feeling is that lady luck falls on your side in the 92nd minute after making such a good effort to develop a move from a set piece, but the Virgin Mary didn't appear.

"We had to dominate them and control their transitions, but [her services] are much appreciated."
