Hansi Flick praised Rafina after the Brazilian scored twice and Barcelona came behind them and beat Celta Vigo on Saturday to leave the top of La Liga.
Rapenha scored in the 98th minute because Flick avoided a big fear after beating Estadi Olip 4-3 in 4-3.
Ferran Torres gave Barca a 12-minute advance, but Borja Iglisia scored the second goal for the visitors just three minutes later.
Eaglias added two more goals after the break to finish a hat-trick with table artillery – which reached the semi-finals of the Champions League in the middle of the week.
Danny Olmo then took him back before Rafinha equalized after five minutes.
The guests seemed to be satisfied with a point, but in the depths of the second half, Barcelona were given a penalty, which the Brazilian changed properly and was a breeding from the Barca camp.

However, the striker Robert Lewandowski was ruled out of the Champions League semi-finals against Inter in both the Champions League finals.
But after the game, he remained in a positive mood.
“When you win, you liked these games,” Flick said.
“We played against a good team. I told the press conference yesterday: They have a clear idea what they want with this coach,” he said.
“I think everyone can know that the team hasn’t given up. They have tried for 90 minutes and we have three points.
Flick talks about his own games. Flick was full of praise: “Rafinah is very important, I love it, like other players, but that leader, always has the positive thinking he has been able to move to the rest of his friends.
“In the first half, I told him: Come, think about positive. We as a leader need you on the pitch,” he said. Then he did a great show.”
While six games left, Barcelona are relatively comfortable at the top of the standings. But Real Madrid are in a game.
Los Blancos host Athletic Bilbao, who have been new to the Europa League quarter-finals against Rangers at the Bernabeu on Sunday.
