Barcelona have now made it seven straight games without a loss to climb into the Top 4 in La Liga thanks to a 3-2 win over Athletic Bilbao in the Basque Country. Barça started terribly but played excellent football over the final 80 minutes, and deserved a big win against a tough team. The Blaugrana have now picked up 17 points from their last 21, and this team is slowly showing signs of life.
FIRST HALF
It was as bad a start to the game as one could have imagined for Barça, who fell into Athletic’s trap and conceded a monster counter attack just three minutes into the game, and Iñaki Williams put his team ahead with a good finish inside the box.
