'Spectacular' Barca delight Luis Enrique after Suarez-inspired rout
Barcelona hammered Deportivo La Coruna 8-0 to get their title defence back on track and Luis Enrique was delighted with his players.
Luis Enrique called his Barcelona side "spectacular" following their 8-0 thrashing of Deportivo La Coruna on Wednesday.
Barca's title bid has faltered in recent weeks, but they bounced back with a ruthless display at the Riazor, keeping their noses ahead of Atletico Madrid on head-to-head record.
Luis Suarez netted four of Barca's eight to take his 2015-16 tally to 49 goals, matching his best season at Ajax in 2009-10.
Ivan Rakitic, Lionel Messi, Marc Barta and Neymar completed the morale-boosting rout.
"We played a great game and were very effective, creating infinite options," Luis Enrique said after the match.
"It was a spectacular result for us. We didn't concede any goals and won away from home.
"We moved down the wings really well, with Leo making his superiority tell, and we made sure we took our early chances. From there on, everything was on a roll."
