Barcelona boss Ernesto Valverde hails his team's attack following Sunday's 8-2 win over Huesca at Camp Nou.

Barcelona boss Ernesto Valverde has paid tribute to his team's attack following Sunday's 8-2 win over Huesca at Camp Nou.

Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez both scored twice, while Ivan Rakitic, Jordi Alba and Ousmane Dembele also registered for the Catalan giants against the newly-promoted outfit.

Valverde has said that his team "did a lot in attack", and "played very well" against "a tough opponent".

"We did a lot in attack, we scored eight goals, we played well and created a lot of chances. It's a good day, Huesca are a tough opponent," Valverde told reporters.

"The match in some parts was difficult but we were patient enough. We pushed them and we had enough resources to come back and score a lot of goals.

"In the first action of the match we conceded the goal, the second we also didn't expect because we had just scored the third. So at half-time we were a bit doubting ourselves. Then in the second half we won the match and we scored many goals because we played very well."

Barcelona and Real Madrid both have 100% records from their first three league matches of the season.
