Villarreal vs Barcelona, La Liga: Final Score 1-5, Barça stay perfect with wild win on the road

Barcelona rebounded quickly from their first defeat of the season against Monaco and remain perfect to begin their La Liga campaign thanks to a wild 5-1 victory over Villarreal at the Estadio de la Cerámica on Sunday. A game that was a lot closer than the scoreline suggests had absolutely everything, including a gruesome injury for Barça goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen, and the Catalans had to show great resilience to endure the difficult moments and great quality to find the necessary goals to earn all three points and remain top of the table with six wins out of six.
