Five talking points from Real Sociedad 1-6 Barcelona

Barcelona’s trip to Anoeta on Sunday looked a tricky one, particularly with Atletico surviving a late penalty to take all three points against Alaves before kick-off.

Yet Barca ran riot on a ground where they’ve famously struggled in the past to send out a real statement of intent ahead of the title run-in.

Ronald Koeman’s side scored six, had one harshly ruled out for offside and put in arguably their best performance of the season. The sixth goal in particular, made in La Masia, was something else.

There’s no doubt Barca are Spain’s best team on current form.
