Barcelona continue to march on to the La Liga title thanks to a comfortable 2-0 win away to Málaga at La Rosaleda on Saturday. Even without Lionel Messi, Barça managed to dominate the worst team in the division to walk away with three more points, another clean sheets and some improved confidence ahead of Chelsea. All good.
FIRST HALF
Málaga are going down and have absolutely nothing to lose, so they did the right thing against a Barcelona without Lionel Messi: pressed them high and forced them to create without their superstar.
