Barcelona continued to keep pace with Real Madrid at the the top La Liga last night, following a 4-1 mauling of 19th place Granada.
With Zinedine Zidane’s Los Blancos claiming a comfortable 3-0 win at Alaves earlier in the day, the Catalans’ victory was considered vital with just a couple of points separating the sides and with Barca having played one game more.
Enrique’s men had to endure without their suspended talisman Lionel Messi for the affair, however goals from Suarez, Neymar and Paco Alcacer were enough to put to the relegation bound Granada to the sword.
Indeed the struggling club, more specifically their Manchester United loanee Andreas Pereira, were duly reminded of their destiny during a bit of mid game handbags involving Ivan Rakitic.
With the referee taking Pereira’s side during a coming together of the two midfielders, the Croatia international retaliated with the following biting sentiment.
‘Son of a bitch! To the second division with you, you’re getting relegated!’
Harsh, no?
Here’s the incident when picked up by this Spanish TV show.
