Dani Alves Gets 7, Traore With 5 | Barcelona Players Rated In Lackluster Loss Vs Villarreal | OneFootball

Barcelona entertained Villarreal at the Nou Camp earlier tonight as they looked to bag all three points at home. The Catalans made a slow start to the game and conceded the opening goal in the 41st minute when Alfonso Pedraza scored with a clinical finish. Barca went into the half-time interval 1-0 down on the scoreline.

Moi Gomez doubled his team’s advantage in the 55th minute with a good finish from close range. The Catalan giants failed to come up with a response and crashed to a 2-0 defeat in front of their home fans.

Let’s take a look at how each Barcelona player performed during the match against Villarreal.

GK: Marc-André ter Stegen – 6/10

The German custodian made one good save in the game but won’t be pleased after failing to keep a clean sheet in both halves.

RB: Dani Alves – 7/10

He got stuck in with some solid tackles and was quite lively in the opponent’s half.

CB: Ronald Araujo – 6.5/10

Araujo did his fair share of defending but failed to stop the opposition from scoring twice during the 90 minutes.

CB: Clement Lenglet – 6/10

The French talent was a strong presence in the air but struggled to give a good account of himself on the defensive end of the pitch.

LB: Jordi Alba – 6/10

The Spaniard made a couple of decent chances in the final third and was far from convincing at the back.

CM: Sergio Busquets – 6.5/10

He tried his best to protect his backline and engineered two good chances on the attacking end of the field.

Gavi struggled to get into the rhythm of the game and produced a below-average display during his time on the field.

RW: Adama Traore – 5/10

Traore made a mistake in the lead-up to one of Villarreal’s goals. He was quite toothless offensively as well.

ST: Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang – 5.5/10

The ex-Arsenal sensation was mostly quiet in the opponent’s half as he didn’t get too many sniffs at goal.

LW: Ferran Torres – 6.5/10

Torres showed some flashes of what he is capable of but didn’t do enough to register a goal.

Substitutes:

RW: Ousmane Dembele – 6/10

Dembele made one good chance in the final third.

LW: Ansu Fati – 6/10

He failed to influence the game after coming off the bench.
