Barcelona never had doubts - Sergio Roberto


Barcelona midfielder Sergi Roberto has stressed that
the Catalans never lost belief they could beat Bayer
Leverkusen.

Sergi Roberto has insisted that Barcelona were always confident
they would be able to turn things around after going 1-0 down in
Tuesday's Champions League encounter with Bayer
Leverkusen.

Kyriakos Papadopoulos gave the Bundesliga side the lead
before the break at Camp Nou, but goals from Roberto and Luis
Suarez in the final 10 minutes of the game eventually saw the
reigning European champions bag the full three points at Camp
Nou.

"At half-time we stuck together, because we knew that we
would succeed," the midfielder told the official Barcelona
website.

"We tweaked our tactics and maybe they were tired, too. They
pressed very well before the break, but with the fans' help we
did it.

"It's probably the most important goal I've scored, because we
were behind and my goal got us back in the game."

Roberto, 23, has already made nine appearances in all
competitions for Barca this term after struggling to secure
regular first-team action in 2014-15 and he is delighted with the
amount of playing time he has been getting from head coach
Luis Enrique.

"I'm playing more than before at the beginning of this season,"
he added.

"I feel great physically and I'm trying to give my best to help the
team."
