David Villa says that he is delighted to help Barcelona with "goals and assists" against Rayo Vallecano and wants to reach the Champions League final.

Barcelona forward David Villa has said that he is "happy" with his performance against Rayo Vallecano in La Liga on Sunday.

The Spain international scored the first goal and set up Lionel Messi for his double, as the Blaugrana registered a 3-1 victory at Camp Nou.

"I'm happy to help the team with goals and assists," he told Barca TV. "I don't normally set up that many goals and I really feel valuable having done so in these last couple of matches.

"I'm very pleased with how I did this week and now I just want to make sure I carry on like that and help the team to get to the end of the league and the Champions League final."

Barcelona are currently 13 points clear at the top of the league table.
