Quite a week for FC Barcelona. After their crazy victory at Benfica (4-5) in the Champions League, the Blaugranas once again made their mark this Sunday evening by crushing Valencia (7-1) at the end of the 21st day of La Liga.
The match was almost over after a quarter of an hour of play, after goals from Frenkie de Jong (3rd), Ferran Torres (8th) and Raphinha (14th). Fermin Lopez then scored a double (24th, 45th+4). Entering the break, Robert Lewandowski scored his little goal (66th) and César Tarrega scored against his side (75th), while Hugo Duro saved the gap for the Valencians (59th).
Barça puts an end to an ugly series of four matches without a victory in the league, and comes back to 7 points behind Real Madrid, and 3 points behind Atlético, who are the losers of the weekend with their draw against Villarreal ( 1-1). Valencia, for its part, remains in a worrying situation in 19th place.
