Barcelona keeper Claudio Bravo: Tough Atletico Madrid style no surprise

Barcelona goalkeeper Claudio Bravo says they knew what to expect from Atletico Madrid for Saturday's win.

Barca overcame Atletico 2-1.

“They play with a tough style, so it was no surprise to us," said Bravo.

“We knew how we had to play against them and I am happy we got the three points.

"We anticipated a rough game because they have players who are capable of doing that.

"There are days when you can deal with it and days when you can't. We didn't get that feeling today.

"The most important thing is that we were able to get on top of the game. We are going well in all three competitions but we are focused on the day-to-day."
