Barcelona v Osasuna as it happened - Ferran Torres grabs double as Catalans thras Osasuna to move into third

A brace from Ferran Torres and goals from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Riqui Puig do the damage as Barcelona thrash Osasuna.

Perfect preparation for their crunch Europa League last-16 second leg clash with Galatasaray in Istanbul on Thursday night, the Catalans simply blew the visitors away with a ruthless attacking display.

Xavi's men move up to third in La Liga and within five points of second-placed Sevilla.

A late booking for Brasanac.

120 seconds more for Osasuna to endure.

Unai Garcia goes into the book for a rugby tackle on Gavi.

Cruz makes a double block to prevent Gavi and then Dembele having a clear sight of goal.

A comfortable night for Barcelona. They will leapfrog Atletico Madrid and Real Betis into third. Sevilla, in second, are just now five points ahead of the Catalans having played a game more.

Depay does well to meet Alves' cross but his improvised effort fails to test Herrera.

It looked promising after his brace so early on, but Torres won't get his hat-trick tonight as he's taken off with 10 minutes to play. Braithwaite is his replacement.

Mingueza comes on for Alba.

The substitute times his run to perfection to meet Alves' lovely ball over the top, but he can't get enough on his header and Herrera claims.

Oh wow, that's the way to make an impression! After having his shot from the edge of the box saved, Puig reacts quickest to latch onto the loose ball, rounds the goalkeeper and finishes from a tight angle.

Martinez is replaced by Brasanac.

Puig has just over 15 minutes to impress. He replaces Pedri.

Aubameyang makes way for Depay.

Dembele, who has two assists to his name tonight, almost grabs the goal his impressive performance deserves. After a fine solo run, he closes in goal and hammers a shot down the middle. Herrera does well to tip it over the bar.

An obvious concern for Xavi, but he should be able to run this off. With a crucial match with Galatasaray coming up on Thursday, it would be no surprise to see him replaced soon, though.

Budimir comes on for Benito.

Aubameyang's pressing has been impressive tonight. Even at 3-0 up, the former Arsenal forward is continuing to give it 100 per cent as he defends from the front.
