"If you don't concentrate you don't win and sometimes looking at the rival team's position in the league does you no good," Suarez told reporters. "In the second half we understood what was at stake and we managed to get the three points." "I asked Umtiti but apart from cutting his hand off I don't know what else he could have done," Barca coach Ernesto Valverde said. Sometimes the ball goes in and it's not given as a goal, other times this happens." Griezmann was the catalyst for the second goal, intercepting a pass to help work the ball towards Torres, while Partey nudged a Yannick Carrasco pass into an empty net in the 88th.
