Vilanova defends Barcelona style after Celtic shock

Barcelona coach Tito Vilanova has again defended their style in the wake of their Champions League defeat at Celtic.

The Hoops stunned Barca at Parkhead.

Vilanova insisted: "The other day we had 97% of the possession in the second half. If that's not enough...We had the possession and a lot of chances. We always want to have possession, to try and attack and score. That's the way we play. The way the team plays suits them. A choice was made about how to try and win. Barça is admired for the way we play, something that can't be said by many teams."
