It could have been more for Barcelona, the one side that always seem to have Unai Emery sussed. They managed to double Villa’s expected goals on the night, produced eight shots on target compared to the visitors’ solitary effort and Barcelona created five big chances against the Villans’ one.
This was a birthday to forget for Emery, who got soaked on the sidelines for good measure.
