The canterano saw to Trincao in the penalty spot and the Portuguese, with a dry shot and raso, put the 1-0 to celebrate his first titularity in what it goes of League.
After the so much, the Barcelona felt freed and in the 36 Busquets saw a big desmarque of Griezmann, that remained only against Pacheco, although it failed the one against one. Messi took the refuse and converted the second, although the VAR finished it cancelling by a milimétrico offside of the French. But after celebrating the target for nothing, the '10' remained 'hammered' and before the rest, in the 46, commanded again the balloon at the end of the meshes with an adjusted zurdazo.
