Barcelona boss Luis Enrique believes that his side "controlled" Saturday's La Liga draw against Getafe.

The Catalan outfit dominated possession against the Madrid-based side, but managed just two attempts on target during the 0-0 stalemate.

"We knew the match would be difficult, but we were better than our opponents and could have talked a good game if we had taken our chances," Enrique told reporters.

"Barring a few instances, we controlled the match. We were first in La Liga, but Madrid are now four points ahead and we're behind them.

"Of course I'd be happier in another situation, but we didn't give our opponents a single minute. We tried to give it our best shot."

Barca face Huesca in the second leg of their last-32 Copa del Rey clash on Tuesday.
