Jordi Alba: The more assists I can give Barcelona, the better

Jordi Alba played a starring role for Barcelona against Celta on Saturday night and says the more assists he can give the team the better.

The full-back played a role in the opening goal, picking out Lionel Messi who saw his shot saved, with Ousmane Dembele netting the rebound.

Alba then played in Messi again for Barcelona’s second and spoke about his relationship with the captain after the match.

“He looked for me in the first goal and then in the second the decoy runs from Luis [Suarez] and Dembele were really good, leaving Messi along, and he never missed.
