Almeria midfielder Guilherme Oliveira was satisfied with his performance against Barcelona in Saturday's 5-0 thumping.
The Brazilian admitted: "It is difficult to have to start playing by confronting players like Dani (Alves) or Leo Messi.
"But it is good to start with a strong pace, and I think there were things I did well, but the match ended up being very tough for everyone.
"Now it is time to improve on many things, I am still very young and I have to maintain my morale for the matches ahead."
