Barcelona defender Sergi Roberto reflected upon his side’s 2-0 win over Inter and stressed the importance of the result.

“Inter came here in good shape, the result was vital for us because the win increases our chance of finishing in first place in the group,” the Spaniard told the Catalan club’s official website.

He then spoke on Lionel Messi’s absence and the need for himself and teammates to do more without him there to help out.

“We all stepped up and gave a bit extra. We always give our all but today a little more.”
