Barcelona boss Luis Enrique pleased to top Group C

Barcelona boss Luis Enrique has paid tribute to his team following Wednesday's 2-0 win over Celtic in the Champions League, which ensured that the Spanish champions made the round of 16 as winners of Group C.

Lionel Messi's brace in Scotland secured all the points for Barcelona, who have finished clear of Manchester City at the top of the group after the Premier League side were held to a 1-1 draw away to Borussia Monchengladbach.

Enrique has hailed his side for topping "one of the toughest groups" in the competition after collecting 12 points from their five matches to date.

"It was a game that we expected. In one of the toughest groups, we have come top. I have to congratulate the team," Enrique told reporters.

Barcelona will now switch their attention to Sunday's trip to Real Sociedad in La Liga.
