Jordi Alba netted Barcelona's third but shortly afterwards got himself booked and he will not feature against Leganes at Camp Nou on Tuesday.

He stopped Pozo with a foul and got a yellow as it was a dangerous counter-attack. What it does is effectively wipe his tally and ensure he'll be in good condition and available to face Sevilla on Friday.

 

The games come thick and fast right now. Jordi Alba is likely to fill in for Alba on Tuesday against relegation-battling Leganes.
