Barcelona continued their perfect start to the La Liga season after a hard-fought 1-0 victory against Athletic Bilbao at San Mamés. It was a difficult game but the Blaugrana were more efficient than the hosts and left the Basque Country with a key victory. Here's a few takeaways from what we saw on Sunday:
1 - Luis Enrique is a great manager
Apart from a few mistakes here and there, Lucho always has a great gameplan for every match, especially the tough ones. Sunday was a perfect example: he learned from previous games that Bilbao press high up the pitch for 90 minutes at home, and Enrique found a way to maintain possession and initiate play with clean passes.
