Luis Suárez spoke to beIN Sports immediately after the final whistle blew at the end of Barcelona's 2-1 victory over LaLiga's third-placed side, Valencia, a win that gives the blaugrana a 14-point lead over Atlético Madrid. The shock exit in the Champions League to Roma on Tuesday night still framed some of the dialogue.

Was this more than just three points?

We tried to continue the great league showing after what happened the other day. And we've come away with three points. This is the most important thing.

Does that win secure the title?

It's another step towards our objective. We have a good advantage but now we have to think of the next game, on Tuesday.

Was scoring early important after what happened in Roma?

The key thing was getting to 1-0 knowing that the mood was not great you could see how it was in the end.

What are your thoughts on setting a new unbeaten Liga record?

Statistics are there to be broken. We knew that the fans were angry and we were also hurting. Now it feels like winning the league is nothing."
