Luis Enrique pleased with BATE Borisov victory

Barcelona boss Luis Enrique says that his team are now heading in the right direction after beating BATE Borisov 2-0 in the group stages of the Champions League.

Barcelona boss Luis Enrique has revealed that he was "satisfied" with his team's performance in Tuesday's 2-0 win over BATE Borisov in the Champions League.

Ivan Rakitic scored both goals for the Catalan outfit in Belarus as they moved to the top of Group E on seven points.

After struggling to reach their top form in the early part of the campaign, Enrique is now confident that his team are heading in the right direction.

"I'm satisfied, yes, very, for everything in general. It's never easy to play away from home in the Champions League with this solvency," AS quotes Enrique as saying.

"We've created a lot of chances but we've encountered with the dynamic we have early in the season, not finishing most chances. It was a complete game and it strengthens us.

"We're getting stronger. In football, you must always have the aim of improving. It's not that we did terribly, but we had to change."

Barcelona have now won their last three competitive games against BATE without conceding a single goal.
