Henry - who made decisive appearances off the bench in Barça's last two games - was less impressive today, but it didn't matter as youngster Bojan Krkic put in an electric performance along with the likes of Andres Iniesta and Samuel Eto'o to seal the 4-1 victory.
With Real Madrid falling to a bizarre home defeat - their second in a row - closing the gap to four points, Henry now eyes a clean sweep for the Blaugrana as they attempt to snatch first position from the current, clumsy title holders.
"There are nine games to go and we have to try to win all of them," said Henry.
Full-back Gianluca Zambrotta chimed in, hailing the team's resilience for overcoming a lacklustre first half to end up cruising to victory.
"We played a good game, with some problems in the first half but we came out for the second with a strong mentality," said the full-back.
"We're happy with the goals in the second half.
"We're very happy for Bojan."
