Barcelona coach Martino satisfied with Copa win

Barcelona coach Tata Martino was pleased with their Copa del Rey win over Cartagena.

Barca ended their losing streak with a solid 4-1 triumph.

"We did what we had to do - Cartegena were intense and never stopped running. They did really well for the first 20 minutes or so," said Martino.

"In general, we were good. We played a third tier side and we did so with humility and respect. We were coming off two defeats and when we were behind tonight - and when we drew level- we showed that we were serious about winning - we knew we had to. Now we are in a great position to get through to the next round."
