Barcelona fired home six goals in their rout of Getafe last night.

Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi both scored twice with Neymar also finding the net and Xavi rolling back the years with a virtuoso performance and impressive strike.

The result takes Barca five points clear at the top of the Primera Division ahead of closest rivals Real Madrid's clash against Almeria on Wednesday.

"I don't remember ever seeing a game with quite so many spectacular goals," said Barca coach Luis Enrique afterwards. "When the team is as effective as that, they're unstoppable."

"I want to congratulate the team" he continued. "Things could have turned difficult today but the players resolved the situation in the best possible way."
