Xavi: Barcelona defeated Real Madrid fair and square

Xavi insists Barcelona defeated Real Madrid fair and square.

He rebuffed Cristiano Ronaldo's comments about the refereeing.

Cristiano is wrong. His criticism is harsh. Barcelona were the better team, we played better than Real and that shows in the result.

"As far as I'm concerned they were all penalties, including Dani Alves' challenge on Cristiano, at least from what you could see out on the pitch."
