The Barca midfielder spoke after the scraped win over Ibiza

Sergi Roberto congratulated Barca on going through after they beat UD Ibiza 2-1 to reach the Copa del Rey last 16.

"We knew that it would be a very difficult game but we were patient until the end," said Sergi Roberto. "They went ahead even though they barely had any chances.

"Still, we continued playing our game, faithful to our philosophy, and in the end with the patience that we had, they dipped a bit in the second half and we were able to go through.

"We expected they would press us high up, but we tried to come out from deep and we took the win.

"I like having the ball and this is our style, not losing the ball, and with this patience you get moe chances and space."
