The midfielder scored the second in the win over Villarreal on Sunday

Carles Aleña was the happiest player on the pitch as Barcelona beat Villarreal as he scored his first LaLiga goal in the 2-0 win. 

The La Masia midfielder came on in the 70th minute and in the 87th minute scored the goal which clinched the game. 

Speaking afterwards, he said: "Thanks to my teammates, everything went well, but the win was the most important thing against an opponent that made things difficult.

Aleña's goal was set up by a fine Lionel Messi pass and he added: "Everything is easier with Messi, only he can see that pass. He puts the ball where he wants. Then, with the one on one, I was really happy to score at Camp Nou. It's a dream come true."  

Now the midfielder wants to feature more for the first team after injury stunted his progress in preseason. 

"I have to take advantage of the chances I get, like in the Copa the other day and then again today," he said.

"It's about doing well and giving the coach a headache when it comes to picking the team. I know I am doing well and now I have to make the most of the opportunities which come my way."
