Barcelona are nine points clear at the top of the La Liga table going into the final five games of the season thanks to a very difficult 2-1 victory over Real Sociedad at Camp Nou. The Blaugrana weren’t at their best and looked exhausted at times, but Jordi Alba scored the winner in the second half and the leaders survived against a really good team to secure three giant points.
FIRST HALF
The first 25 minutes were hard to watch, and both teams contributed to it: the ball just didn’t stick, and neither team was able to execute their gameplan because they just couldn’t put three passes together.
