Barcelona defender Gerard Pique insists the 1-0 win over Dynamo Kiev was “important” as it will help them fight until the final game of the Champions League group stage. It also builds confidence before the El Clasico battle.

Pique, who scored the winning goal in this game, said: “This result helps a lot. Because it will build confidence before an important game like Clasico, winning three straight home games for the first time this season is great. If in the next house if we win We will overtake Madrid, but if we go to win in Kiev we will meet Benfica here to try to qualify.”

“After the first two games in this group with no points. and can’t score This victory was very important for us to keep fighting until the end of the group stage. I think we are doing well Although we have to do better, Dinamo didn’t hit a single shot on target. But that’s because they put a lot of emphasis on defensive games. That is difficult for us.”

“We play well with the ball. This is one of its strengths. and our style In the second half we didn’t create as many chances as the first half. But these three points are the most important.”
