We know they are one of the best clubs in the world, so we never rule them out for La Liga."There are still so many matches to play and Madrid, in their history have always proved they can pull off the impossible." Iniesta admitted the hosts were the dominant side in the first half, but commended the Catalans' ability to turn the tide and register a memorable triumph."I want to congratulate the whole team on a great win," he added. "In the first half, Madrid had more chances than us. They were playing a more attacking style of football to us and were stronger than us."In the second half we turned the tables and were more comfortable"In the first half they played us one-on-one but were not able to keep up that demanding style of play in the second half."</blockquote>
