Robert Lewandowski – 6 (75 minutes)

Lewandowski was a complete nuisance throughout the game and I mean that in the best way. Made a number of intelligent runs which were wasted. Always willing to do the running and out a shift in defensively, challenged for every ball. Didn’t really have a sight of goal for the second game in a row.

Ousmane Dembélé – 7  (65 minutes)

Scored a well-worked goal in the first half and was a constant threat down the right-hand side. Did miss a good opportunity to put Barca up 2-0 in the first half with a 1-v-1 with Courtois. Not all his flicks came off, but he showed his value to the team, and why Barca should do everything they can to keep him amidst PSG’s interest.

Raphinha – 6

Didn’t do a great deal when he came on. You can always rely on Raphinha to put in a shift and that’s exactly what he did, alongside Fati, Torres and Lopez.

Ansu Fati – 7

Fati really looks motivated to get back to his best. It was his press which led to the Real Madrid turnover, which in turn led to a stunning strike from Fermin Lopez. Didn’t have a lot of time to impact the game, but he made the most of the little time he had.

Ferran Torres – 7

Two games, two goals for Ferran Torres. Took his goal really well to nip the ball past Courtois. Not the most stylish goal, but incredibly well-taken and this is just a confidence builder.
