Luis Suarez two 2nd half goals gave the Catalans a vital win in a 2-1 comeback victory over 10-man Atletico Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League quarterfinal.
Here's what Barca hero of the night said after the match:
"It was a difficult game from the start, knowing the strategy of Atletico."
"We could have scored another goal. The important thing is we won and they will need to score a goal there [in the second leg]."
Torres sending off
"Obviously a sending off in the first will affect the game, even more when it's a great player."
"Everyone knows his quality, but he made two heavy fouls. It was a pity -- I would have liked to come back with 11."
On his game
"We knew there would be not much space, and I needed to stay close to the area to convert what I could."
"I had the luck to score twice, but that's why I am here, to help the team."
Return leg
"The return will be a similar game to today's".
"But we are relaxed as they will be obliged to [come out to] win the game. If we score one, they will have to score two."
