A donating performance from the team.
Jasper Cillessen
Was rarely tested but did well when called upon.

Jordi Alba
The Alba-Messi connection is alive and well as the two regaurgly linked up in this game to devastating effect. Alba was forever willing to get forward in the knowledge that Messi could pick him out. Registered two assists and even got a goal himself.

Javier Mascherano
Unlike the first leg, Mascherano seemed unfazed by the pace of Celta’s attack this time and quickly stopped any chances before they became a real threat.

Gerard Piqué
Only played the first half but did not look troubled in that period.

Nélson Semedo
Not quite as buccaneering as his full back partner Alba, Semedo did look to get forward when possible. He also knew when to stay back and watch for a Celta counterattack.

Sergio Busquets
No real danger of a Celta counterattack so Busquets’ main role here was to convert defence into attack as quickly as possible which he did well.

Ivan Rakitić
Managed to fire away a shot in the first half but it sailed over the bar, he did however get a goal in the dying minutes to go with a good performance. Linked up with Jordi Alba well.

Andrés Iniesta
Kept giving the ball to the right people and allowed Barcelona’s first half momentum to flourish. Left the field just after the hour mark.

André Gomes
A better performance from Gomes as he proved once again how much of a confidence player he is. Orchestrated a quick one-two with Suárez that resulted in the ball finding the net but the Uruguayan was offside.

Luis Suárez
Snacthed at a few of the chances in the game but was gifted a first half goal. The ball rolled to him and he made no mistake, firing it high into the net.

Lionel Messi
Produced one of the best passes I’ve ever seen for Alba’s goal. From a standing stand, he whipped the ball 40 yards directly through the fence and into the path of Alba. Sublime stuff. Elsewhere, he was in lethal form. Scoring two well placed goals.

Ousmane Dembélé
Looked excellent in his 30 minute cameo. Frequently causing problems for the already exhausted Celta defence, the quick movement and skill was a sign of what to come. Apapered to leave the field with an injury but Valverde was quick to pour cold water on any doubts.

José Arnáiz
Played just under 30 minutes and looked a real danger thanks to some clever runs.

Ernesto Valverde
Won the game early and then rested key players.

Dominating from start to finish, a real momentum building win.
