Five talking points from Barcelona 1-2 Granada

Barca threw away the chance to go top of the table with five games left to play by gifting Granada a first-ever win at the Camp Nou.

Ronald Koeman’s men looked set for victory after Lionel Messi and Antoine Griezmann combined superbly to open the scoring after 23 minutes.

However, for the umpteenth time this season Barca failed to kill off the game, despite creating a host of chances, and were once again undone by some poor defending.

Barca really should have won the game and failure to do so has dealt the team’s title hopes a big blow.
