Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski was delighted with his hat-trick in victory over Valencia.
Barca won 4-2 on Monday night.
Lewandowski said afterwards: "It wasn't easy... In the first half we didn't have many spaces. But the important thing is that we are Barça and we know that, although we conceded two goals, we can score three or four goals.
"If we score goals, everything is easier. We knew that we had to play with patience in the second half, but we didn't need to touch the ball so much, but rather to get to the zone with the last pass. We are good now and we have to think about Girona."
He added, "I only have 16 goals, but if we have more scoring chances, it is easier for me. This is the first step. If the whole team plays well, it is easier for me. What matters is that we work and win everything."
