Barcelona have secured their second consecutive win in the La Liga season, after defeating Osasuna 5-0 at Camp Nou on Saturday. The victory was a much-needed boost for the Catalans, who had struggled to find form since losing Lionel Messi to Paris Saint-Germain.
The match began brightly for Barcelona, as they took control of the game from the outset. Gerard Pique scored in the third minute to give his team the lead, before Lionel Messi doubled their advantage moments later. The Argentine maestro then completed his hat-trick just before half-time, giving Barcelona a commanding 3-0 lead at the break.
In the second half, Barcelona continued to dominate proceedings, with Luis Suarez scoring twice to extend their lead to four goals. The Uruguayan's second goal came in the 67th minute, while his header in the 84th ensured that Barcelona would leave the San Mamés Stadium with all three points.
The win means that Barcelona now sit second in the La Liga table, behind Real Madrid. The Catalan giants will be hoping to build on this impressive performance as they continue their campaign in the league. With Messi back in the fold, there is no doubt that Barcelona will be a force to be reckoned with in the coming weeks and months.
