The player notched the first goal against Malaga in the 2-0 win

He said he didn't see the ball go off before he scored his controversial strike

Barcelona forward Gerard Deulofeu opened the scoring with a goal which should never have been given.

He told BeIn Sports after the game: "I've played two or three good games in a row and have to continue on this path, helping the team. I am feeling important."

On the goal he said: "I didn't see it go off, I think it's good, that's why I continued."

On Malaga: "It was a tricky game because they pressed well high up the pitch. It was important to grab the three points and keep adding victories."

On Suarez and Messi: "His goals will come, it's like Messi. They could go two games without scoring and then score two or three goals in a row. There's no need to be worried."
