Leganés 2-1 Barcelona, La Liga: Match Review

Barcelona one-upped their showing against Girona with a remarkable loss against Leganes. After leading for the majority of the first half, Nabil El Zhar and Oscar Rodriguez scored two goals in one minute in the secord to secure a shocking win.

Ernesto Valverdo rotated the lineup once again, this time Jordi Alba and Luis Suarez receiving some deserved rest. They were replaced by Thomas Vermaelen and Munir El Haddadi, both making their first La Liga appearance of the season.

Barcelona were looking to quickly get on the scoresheet, but a very defensively set-up Leganes side was able to deal with all attacks.
