The team held their own against a very stubborn Osasuna side who were not looking to let the Blaugrana score under any circumstances.
The Catalans had to be patient to take their chances but they did find the back of the net twice to take the win. With this win, they have put immense pressure on the league leaders who will now have to win their match against derby rivals, Real Madrid.
Should Atletico fail to produce a win, they will have only one game in hand and the lead could drop from eight points to five points.
That would be highly profitable for Ronald Koeman‘s team as they still have a game left against the leaders and a win would close the gap further.
This might be the first time Barcelona fans will be actively supporting Madrid however, leaving that aside, let’s take a look at three main talking points from their victory over Osasuna.
