Pape Diop's Eibar see unbeaten run stopped by Barcelona

Senegal midfielder Pape Diop played the entire match for Eibar whose four-match La Liga unbeaten run came to a halt following a 3-0 thumping by Barcelona at Ipurua Municipal Stadium on Saturday.

Diop was booked in the 24th minute as Eibar went on to lose after goals from Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Antonio Griezmann, their first league defeat since September 15.

Interestingly, their previous defeat was at home as well, a 2-1 defeat to Espanyol before recovering to register two wins and as many draws with Diop featuring in three of the four games.
