Barcelona are rallying around goalkeeper Victor Valdes after errors in the last two games.

Valdes has been blamed for goals conceded against Espanyol and Lyon this week, but coach Pep Guardiola says: "Juninho's goal was incredible. Even with seven goalkeepers, that shot was unstoppable."

Barca striker Samuel Eto'o also said: "Tomas N'Kono Ni, who for me is the best goalkeeper ever, could not stop that shot. (Juninho) has produced just an amazing effort and nothing more."

Midfielder Yaya Toure added: "Victor is an excellent professional and Juninho, a specialist at free-kicks, the best in the world right now."
