One of FC Barcelona's star players has claimed that beating Real Madrid gives him a similar rush to the one he got when winning the UEFA Champions League.

The Catalans thrashed their rivals 5-1 at the Camp Nou on Sunday evening, and left-back Jordi Alba has since revealed the victory has given him almost the same feeling he had when winning Europe's biggest club competition, which he did with Barca in the 2014/15 campaign.
"It's not as important as winning a Champions League but that's how it feels to me," he said, according to Sport.
"For Cules, it's very important to beat Real Madrid."
Asked about his assist for the Blaugrana's first goal in the match, Alba admitted he loves helping the team in attack.
"Sometimes I enjoy giving assists more than scoring goals," he added.
"We found space, we tried to combine in the centre to end up opening up the flanks and I think we did a lot of damage."
