Fabulous. Utterly fabulous.
That was, by some distance, the performance of this season. Not even sure anyone was waiting for it, because did anyone genuinely believe the team had that in their locker under Koeman?
It’s hard to find fault in what was a comprehensive 90 minutes, and where Barcelona were better in all aspects of play.
Granada are no mugs either. We saw that at this ground the last time we were here, and another early goal from the hosts may have placed a different complexion on the game.
What was most enjoyable about that match, aside from the individual performances which we’ll go into shortly, was the confidence with which every Barca player passed the ball.
