After a turbulent start to the campaign, Ronald Koeman was hoping to start 2021 with a comfortable victory.
In the 27th minute, Frenkie de Jong got them off to the perfect start as he directed Lionel Messi’s cross into the net to make it 1-0. It was the Dutchman’s second league goal of the campaign.
Despite dominating, Barcelona could only manage the one goal but it was enough for the victory. Barcelona are now fifth in the table.
How many children have ‘daydreamed’ on the pitch to score the winning goal in a game for a football giant like Barca, much less with an assist from Messi. Way to go Frenkie!
