Barcelona overcame Getafe on Saturday night despite being reduced to nine men, and Pep Guardiola was thrilled with his side's efforts.

Speaking to Marca after the game, Guardiola said, "We do not want to speak about the refereeing, because it is a waste of time."

"We are enjoying the league. Referees make mistakes like everyone else.

"Getafe is the toughest team to play against with ten men, but we took a step forward and played marvellously."

With the win, Barcelona maintain their five point lead at the top of the league.
