Hansi Flick's Barcelona produced an impressive comeback to beat Atletico Madrid 3-1 on Tuesday, with the German boss saying his side had taken a step forward after some shaky performances.

Alex Baena fired Atletico ahead (19th min), but Raphinha equalised for the champions (26th min) before Dani Olmo (65th min) and Ferran Torres (90+7th min) struck to end the visitors's run of 13 straight league games without defeat.

"This was one of the best matches from us, I really appreciate what I saw over the 90 minutes," Flick told reporters, before adding, "This was the next step... we are coming back to our best level."

This was the Catalan giants's fifth consecutive league victory since losing the Clasico to Real Madrid in October.
