WATCH: Carles Alena scores brilliant first La Liga goal for Barcelona against Villarreal

Carles Alena scored his first La Liga goal for Barcelona on Sunday in some style, as the champions beat Villarreal 2-0 at the Camp Nou.

Gerard Pique headed Barcelona in front in the first half, and Alena made the game safe after replacing Arturo Vidal in the second half.

The 20-year-old was put through by a brilliant ball from Lionel Messi but then came up with a superb dinked finish to beat Sergio Asenjo.
