Barcelona beat fifth placed Villarreal 4-1 on Saturday to stay in first place, ahead of Real Madrid on goal difference, although Zidane’s side still have a game in hand over their arch-rivals. Neymar started things off for the Catalans after combining with Luis Suárez and Messi in the twentieth minute, but Bakambu levelled the scores soon afterwards following a long run from midfield. Piqué, Soldado and Neymar all went close as the game hung in the balance, but Messi restored the lead on the stroke of half time with a shot which took a deflection off Mario to wrong-foot Andrés. The visiting keeper had to save from Neymar and Messi though after the restart, and with twenty minutes to go Luis Suárez made it three after Sergi Roberto set him up following a quickly taken free kick. And a few minutes later the locals were awarded a hotly-disputed penalty after a shot from Suárez hit Jaume Costa on the arm, and Messi stepped up to chip in the resulting spot kick.
