Xavi promised to rotate his squad for this one and was as good as his word, making six changes to his starting XI and handing plenty of players some much-needed minutes.
In defence there were starts for Sergi Roberto, Jordi Alba, and Andreas Christensen as Eric Garcia, Ronald Araujo, and Alejandro Balde were rested.
Franck Kessie made his first competitive start and needed just 13 minutes to score, while Frenkie de Jong and Ansu Fati were also back in the starting XI.
We also got to see Gerard Pique off the bench for the first time this season, and there was also a Champions League debut for Pablo Torre.
