Granada 2-0 Barcelona: Report, Ratings & Reaction as Blaugrana Are Toppled by New La Liga Leaders

Barcelona's problems went from bad to worse at Nuevo Los Carmenes, as Granada ran out comfortable 2-0 winners to climb to the top of La Liga.

The hosts made a lightning quick start to the game and took the lead through Ramon Azeez after just two minutes thanks to a mistake from left-back Junior Firpo. The hosts didn't let La Blaugrana settle and carved out another opportunity moments later, though Marc-Andre ter Stegen was equal to the task.

The first half progressed at a frantic pace, with Ernesto Valverde's men continuing to struggle in possession and unable to carve open a stubborn defence.
