Barcelona midfielder Andres Iniesta has said that poor refereeing decisions hurt his side in their narrow win over Getafe at Camp Nou on Saturday.
Rafael Marquez and Gerard Pique both saw red in the 2-1 win that sees Barcelona remain five points clear at the top of the Primera Liga and Iniesta insisted that his side must focus on themselves and trying to win each game.
"The referee hurt us dramatically with the decisions he has taken and we can do little about it," he told a press conference.
"The most important is that we do our jobs and continue taking points every game. The team has returned to giving a good display and the feeling is very good."
On a personal level Iniesta also remarked that he feels in good shape and said his aim is to be a better player than last season.
"I feel good, I try to get the utmost consistency, it is difficult to compare with last year but what I want is to be better than the previous season."
