Osasuna
Ricardo - 7.5: Could do nothing about the goal, and his saves proved crucial in the end, as the home side grabbed a late equaliser.
Cesar Azpilicueta - 6: Was not embarrassed by Iniesta too often, but could not get forward as much as usual.
Miguel Flano - 4: Gave the ball away on a few occasions, and was lucky not to see red for a poor challenge on Ibrahimovic.
Josetxo - 7: Looked far more assured than his defensive partner, and made many decisive challenges.
Ignacio Monreal - 6: Kept Messi fairly quiet in the first half, but lost his battle against the Argentine and Puyol in the second.
Juanfran - 7: Got the better of Abidal on a few occasions, but could not find his targets with his crosses.
Javad Nekounam - 5: A fairly innocuous performance, and his delivery from set pieces left a lot to be desired.
Patxi Punal - 6: Did well to nullify Barca's midfield threat in the first half, but ran out of legs in the second.
Javier Camunas - 7.5: Was pinpointed as a threat by Pep Guardiola before the game, and proved the difference with a brilliant bit of skill in the final seconds.
Carlos Aranda - 6: Showed some neat touches and plenty of effort, but his finishing was poor.
Walter Pandiani - 5: Hardly touched the ball, and his few headers were off target.
Substitutes
Masoud - 6: Looked lively after coming on, and improved the home side's set piece delivery.
Ruper - N/A
Jorge Galan - N/A
Barcelona
Victor Valdes - 7: Didn't have any tough saves to make, and could do nothing about the unfortunate own goal.
Carles Puyol - 8: An inspired performance, made a number of vital tackles at the back, and provided the assist for Keita during one of his many dangerous forays forward.
Gerard Pique - 6: Didn't do much wrong in truth, but his night will be remembered for the wrong reasons.
Dmytro Chygrynskiy - 6: Could have been booked earlier, and his yellow card let to the entrance of Marquez, who was culpable for the equalizer.
Eric Abidal - 6.5: Allowed Juanfran far too much space in the first half, but did combine well with Iniesta down the left flank.
Sergio Busquets - 6: Performed his defensive duties well, but did drift out of the game.
Seydou Keita - 8: The man with an eye for goal was in the right place at the right time again, and he never gave the ball away during the game.
Xavi - 7: A predictably consistent performance, although there were no moments of magic tonight.
Lionel Messi - 8: After a quiet first half, came alive in the second with plenty of tricks and dangerous runs, and played a large part in the goal.
Andres Iniesta - 7: Caused plenty of problems down the left, and consequently didn't allow Azpilicueta to get forward.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic - 5.5: Held the ball up well, but didn't have too many chances, although he might have scored had Flano not brought him down when clean through.
Substitutes
Rafael Marquez - 4: Wasn't on for long, but was clearly at fault for allowing Camunas to get the ball across for the goal.
Pedro - N/A
