Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde was not fully satisfied after watching his side thrash Huesca 8-2 to go top of La Liga. Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez both scored twice and after Jorge Pulido's own goal Ousmane Dembele, Ivan Rakitic and Jordi Alba were all on target as Valverde's side ran riot in the second half. But Huesca had opened the scoring through Watford loanee Cucho Hernandez and pulled it back to 3-2 before the break when Alex Gallar converted a cut-back. Despite the lop-sided scoreline, both Huesca's goals rankled with Valverde.

"I'm happy because we created many chances, but I'm not satisfied with the two goals conceded. We have to limit the chances near our area," he said after the game. Huesca made a fight of the first period, but Barca hit the woodwork through Dembele and Messi either side of the break and eventually ran their opponents ragged.
