Barcelona fans, pick your man of the match vs Osasuna

1/22

Barcelona dropped points again on Saturday as Osasuna earned a deserved point in front of their own fans.

Roberto Torres opened the scoring after just seven minutes, their early intensity paying off as Brandon Thomas got the better of Clement Lenglet in the build-up.

The home crowd was rocking and Osasuna went close to extending them lead before the break despite seeing considerably less of the ball.

The second half with a different story. Ernesto Valverde brought on 16-year-old Ansu Fati at half-time and the youngster scored within five minutes, no one more surprised than himself.

The turnaround was complete 15 minutes later when Arthur curled a fine effort into the corner, another of Valverde's second-half substitutes making the desired impact.

But the away win wasn't to be as Gerard Pique was penalised for handball and Torres scored again, this time from the penalty spot.

That is now four points dropped in three games for Barcelona and Atletico Madrid can open up a five-point advantage on Sunday.
