Barça 1-0 Córdoba: Hard-fought victory

Barça were dominant and had the majority of the chances in the first half. Matheus against the post, and shots from Povill, Coelho and Ximbinha would've given the hosts a comfortable lead were it not for Cristian, the Córdoba goalkeeper, having the game of his life.

However, he couldn't do anything when Joselito took a quick corner and Ximbinha assisted Adolfo to finally open the scoring (1-0, min 17).

Chances

The break seemed to spur on the visitors, with Manu Leal and Saura having the clearest chances to equalise. The introduction of the goalkeeper-player by the Andalusian team put even more pressure on the hosts, but Andreu Plaza's side held on to earn an important victory.
