A brace from Pedro Rodriguez ensured no Christmas hangover for Barcelona as Pep Guardiola's side created a five-point gap between themselves and Real Madrid at the La Liga summit.
The champions had to construct a makeshift back-four due to the absence of Gerard Pique and Carlos Puyol, who were both out due to suspension and injury respectively.
Bojan definitely flop of the match. Pedro rightly Man Of The Match. Villa got a 7 for doing nothing though and how the hell did Maxwell get a 6? He was a 5 to me. He was invisible. In fact, I'm not even sure if he had played last night. Manolo Reina deserved an 8. His contributions were on par with Pedro's. He stopped shots from left, right and center.
