That was an obvious red card. Goal was offside, but that’s as clear as goal scoring opportunity as you could get.

No words.. Espanyol didn't deserve that but fair play to Benzema

Says a lot about his confidence that in one of his worst games over the last 3-4 seasons he still does that in the last 5 mins.

Annoyingly Barca look very, very good this season. Need Real Madrid to keep setting the pace.

This new man needs to learn that Darder is better deeper. He's one of the best midfielders in the world at progressing the ball through passing and dribbling, and no other Espanyol CM can progress play to even half the standard. No one else can keep it under pressure either.

That and missing RDT is costing them.

Will be very interesting to see how Pedri and Gavi compete against Camavinga and Tchouameni in a couple of years when they all mature. The best midfield talents around playing for the top two in Spain.
Gavi is at most a Camavinga-level talent, which is to say, he's going to be one of the very best midfielders of the next 10-15 years

Pedri, on the other hand, is historical. Xavi/Zidane potential, fml

Doesn't matter how crap Madrid are, they just find a way to win.
It's so annoying sometimes. You think they're done and they just keep on doing it. Pundits keep on harping about luck and mentality but I think somewhere it has to be said that they are also physically absolutely top tuned. They're still running around like hamsters in the last minutes when the opposition is knackered.

@giorno @carvajal @MVBDX @Iker Quesadillas and rest of Madrid community

Raul de Tomas is being linked to the club this end of market. Opinions?
Good option, but as @carvajal said, depends what we see in the youngsters. Would rather not spend money on a backup and use the academy if there's anyone suitable. If not, RDT would be good if he accepts being a backup. Academy player too

Tchoauméni is a colossus.

2-1. Rodrygo scores from a Valverde cross.

Sevilla's forwards don't know how to finish, lucky escape for Barca twice.

Offside or not, Sevilla really need to improve their finishing.

Devastating counter attack. They’re too good up front.

Gavi does well to win the ball there for the transition

Undeserved for Barcelona but that attacking trio is brilliant. Lewandowskis finishing is unreal.

Lewandowski makes it 2 after a super ball by Kounde. Lewa is just ridiculous.
