Barcelona midfielder Pedri praises matchwinner Vitor Roque

Barcelona midfielder Pedri was happy with victory over Osasuna.

The match was the first since Xavi's end of season resignation announcement.

Pedri said: "You know this victory very well, it was a difficult game from where we came from. Osasuna puts a lot of intensity into it and the important thing is the three points and continuing to add.

"It is a week that is not normal. It is a decision of the coach. What remains with him we are going to give everything. He has helped us all a lot and we have to give everything for him and for the team.

"We knew that these are his last games as a coach and we have to come out with more enthusiasm than before and give him victories until the end of the season."

On matchwinner Vitor Roque, he added: "I think Vitor gives us a lot of rhythm, he has a goal, he is going to contribute a lot to us. He constantly throws off the markers and that is essential for midfielders."
