Barcelona captain Sergio Busquets was thrilled to beat Atletico at the Wanda Metropolitano, particularly after seeing Real Madrid drop points at the weekend.
The win means Barcelona are now three points clear at the top of the table in Spain and Busquets feels it was a job well don.
“We are very happy. We knew it was a difficult place to come. We knew Madrid had dropped points against Villarreal. It was a very close game, we started well, and we had the chance with Pedri we could have made it 2-0,” he said.
“They were very aggressive and I think in the second half they were very strong but we dealt with it.
