Larsson compares Barca to watching FIFA video game

Henrik Larsson has likened viewing Luis Enrique's Barcelona to watching a video game in real life.

Former Barcelona striker Henrik Larsson believes Luis Enrique's Spanish and European champions are more like something out of a video game than real life.

Larsson, who won a Champions League crown with the club in 2005, was back in Catalonia for a week of training with the club he coaches, Helsingborg, and was full of praise for Barca.

Defending champion Barca tops La Liga by three points, while it is preparing for the Champions League last 16.

"I watch them whenever I can on the television, it's a fantastic team," the former Sweden international said.
