Victor Valdes 6/10: Playing in his 500th sport for Barcelona, the keeper had almost no to do. Valdes came charging out of his box in typical fashion to brew a great clearance before halftime, but was otherwise your spectator as Valladolid struggled position attacks together.
Martin Montoya 6. 5/10: The 22-year-old brought down Manucho for any penalty, but replays would suggest he was unlucky, having clearly reached the ball first. He demonstrated his comfort on your ball and looked very hazardous when venturing forward.
Gerard Pique 6. 5/10: The graceful centre-back had hardly anything to do defensively thus took the opportunity of showing his quality on your golf ball. Pique ventured out of defence a lot of times to instigate targeting play and launched a lot of impressive long balls.
Javier Mascherano 6/10: The Argentine returned from a knee injury and, such as his defensive partner, is barely threatened. Mascherano knocked some nice passes for the field, but did nothing so that you can suggest the Catalans should not spend big on their defence come july 1st.
Jordi Alba 7/10: The Spanish international was tireless to the left flank, covering massive areas of space. The fullback looked very sharp on the ball and always provided a great outlet for Andres Iniesta, managing a notable 131 touches. Unfortunately, Alba can't quite get beyond the defensive line and put up the final ball like he usually does.
