Luis Enrique hails Andres Iniesta, Luis Suarez

Barcelona boss Luis Enrique has paid tribute to Andres Iniesta and Luis Suarez after the Spanish giants eased into the Club World Cup final.

A hat-trick from Suarez saw Barcelona beat Chinese side Guangzhou Evergrande 3-0 in a match where Iniesta shone in the middle of the park.

Immediately after the match, Enrique spoke to the media and could not hide his delight with the quality of his team's performance.

"Iniesta is a player with great footballing ability. It's difficult to control his quality. The team gave a serious account of themselves. This kind of game is tough, but we were up to the task," Enrique told reporters in Japan. "Suarez is a killer in the box, capable of scoring from any kind of situation."

Barcelona will take on Argentine side River Plate in the final on Sunday.
