Barcelona succumbed to high flying Celta Vigo, who are currently sitting at the top of the table alongside Real Madrid with 13 points.

Barcelona rolled into the match with this line up :  TerStegen - Alves Pique Mascherano Mathieu - S.Roberto Busquets Iniesta - Messi Suarez Neymar .

Since Dani Alves returned to his favoured right back position,  Luis Enrique thought it would be unfair to leave Sergi Roberto on the bench so he decided to play him in the  midfield,  which made sense. Pique's return means, Mathieu played at left back position for the injured Jordi Alba.

Barcelona lacked cohesion and organisation right from the word 'GO'. There were haphazard and careless combinations throughout the match which contributed to the  disastrous scoreline. Pique and Dani Alves were at fault for more than one occasion which clearly shows the importance of 'Match Practice' .

Aspas clear on goal earlier in the match

Barcelona recovered from their sloppy start and created few chances in succession, but were wasteful in front of the goal.In the 14th minute, a brilliant team play saw Neymar  through on goal, but his shot was saved. 

On their first goal, Dani Alves was way out of his position. Nolito, who received the  ball  in the box had all the time in the world . He scored his 5th goal to put Celta Vigo ahead with a sublime curler. 

Their Second goal came within minutes after Pique had a brain fart near the halfline. Aspas, who was clear on goal chipped the ball over Ter Stegen, who really had no chance whatsoever. Celta Vigo were leading 2-0 at the half time.

Minutes into the second half, Aspas almost put Celta 3-0 after Busquets lost the possession in a terrible fashion. Both teams created plethora of chances, but only one team took them.

Barcelona's day summed up when Lionel Messi struck the post after  52 minutes with only their goalkeeper to beat. Barcelona were totally dominant in that period and continued to create few more chances. Celta Vigo, on the other hand were happy to absorb the pressure and hit on the break . 

Their tactics worked to perfection when Nolito devised a brilliant counter attack from a Barca's corner. Nolito lobbed a perfect ball to Aspas, who skipped past Alves in a brilliant fashion to put Celta 3-0 ahead.

Even though Neymar scored a late consolation goal for Barcelona, his goal scoring form is a concern. Guidetti scored the 4th goal  to smash any hopes of comeback for Barcelona.
