Three talking points from Barcelona 2-0 Real Sociedad

Barcelona leapfrogged Girona to move back into second spot in the table with victory over Real Sociedad that boosts their chances of finishing as runners-up.

A lovely goal from Lamine Yamal opened the scoring, after some great work from Robert Lewandowski and Ilkay Gundogan, before Barca finally finished it off late on with a penalty.

There was also a first clean sheet in a month to boost Marc-Andre ter Stegen’s chances of winning the Zamora trophy again.
