A game in which he suffered more than he should have. and that he also had the experience of Pepe Reina in goal, who avoided a worse defeat for his team. Barcelona took all three points from the La Cerámica stadium and now extend their lead over their nearest rivals: Real Madrid.
At the home of the Yellow Submarine, without having a brilliant game, the visit managed to decipher the lock of Quique Setién on the bench, through Pedri, who combined perfectly with Robert Lewandowski and on a wall, the ball was served to the Spanish midfielder to cross it before the departure of the experienced goalkeeper.
Villarreal suffered the early departure of Francis Coquelin and was replaced by Samuel Chukwueze, who was among the most active. There wasn’t much chalk in front of goal though, apart from one game in which Ronald Araújo was huge and drowned out the home crowd’s goal scream. Barcelona now have 15 wins in their last 16 outings and are firmly maintaining their foothold in La Liga.
