Barcelona moved three points free from Real Madrid at the top of Laliga with an easy 3-0 victory in their match in his home to Osasuna on Thursday.
The Blaugrana were without Raphinha and let Robert Lewandowski start on the couch after this match was switched to this date, after the death of Club Doctor Carles Minarro Garcia.
But Barca did not miss a beat because they expanded their undefeated run to 19 games in all competitions and the only team in Europe's top five competitions to still taste the defeat in 2025.
Ferran Torres added the finishing touch to a great team goal in the 11th minute, before Dani Olmo expanded Barca's lead with a recaptured penalty 10 minutes later after he was contaminated by Osasuna captain Sergio Herrera.
Olmo was soon forced with a clear injury, but Barca remained complete control and Torres met the bar with a free kick shortly before the break.
The Clinching Third goal only came after Lewandowski appeared as a replacement and nodded in a cross of colleague -replacing Fermin Lopez, who had replaced Olmo.

Debrief data: Yamal is central
Barcelona has such a wealth of offensive options, but with Raphinha and Lewandowski who were missing in the XI, they needed Torres and Lamine Yamal to perform – and got up.
Torres scored the opener with one of the four shots, a count only linked by Yamal.
Although Yamal neither offered nor offered an assist, he was involved with everything else. He also led Barca for opportunities created (four) and tried an incredible 16 dribbles, and completed seven when he tore apart Osasuna.
