Barcelona player ratings vs Albacete: Lamine Yamal is on fire! Teenager keeps up hot streak to lead Blaugrana into Copa del Rey semi-finals

Joan Garcia (5/10):

The goalkeeper went through most of the evening without having much to do, but had his clean sheet spoiled in a dramatic finale.

Joao Cancelo (4/10):

Produced some dangerous crosses in the attacking third but was pretty naive in defence, picking up a booking in the 15th minute and risking his side going down to 10 players with further foolish infringements. Flick sensed the danger and substituted him at half-time.

Ronald Araujo (8/10):

Led the backline well as captain for the night and scored the goal that proved to be the winner come full-time.

Eric Garcia (7/10):

Recalled to the line up and did his chances of more regular games little harm with a composed performance.

Gerard Martin (7/10):

Scampered up and down the left-hand side, offering width in attack and making some important interventions at the back.

Frenkie de Jong (8/10):

Pivotal in the first goal, sensing the chance to press and then rolling the ball for Yamal to finish. Always a second or two ahead of the Albacete players.

Marc Bernal (6/10):

Was combative in the middle of the park but looked a little rusty at points.

Dani Olmo (7/10):

Wasn't shy at taking a pop at goal, ending the game with six shots, three of which were on target. Nice and smooth on the ball and picked out some good passes to bring his team-mates into play.

Lamine Yamal (9/10):

Produced a wonderful finish from De Jong's pass to make it 1-0. Always looked capable of coming up with some magic whenever he got the ball, producing some beautiful passes to set up his team-mates.

Robert Lewandowski (5/10):

Frustratingly struggled to get into the game and saw his only shot of the night saved.

Marcus Rashford (7/10):

Probably should have done better with Barcelona's first big chance of the game. However, the loanee pressed well in the build-up to the first goal and then bagged an assist for Araujo's header.

Pau Cubarsi (6/10):

Was comfortable for most of the second half and then helped Barcelona withstand a late period of pressure.

Fermin Lopez (7/10):

Created a couple of chances and was lively during his cameo.

Marc Casado (5/10):

A little off the pace as he made four fouls off the bench.

Ferran Torres (6/10):

Thought he had bagged a third for his side, only to see his effort disallowed by VAR.

Jules Kounde (6/10):

Came on the final 15 minutes or so and helped Barcelona claim the win, even if the ending was more uncomfortable than it should have been.

Hansi Flick (6/10):

Showed the competition plenty of respect by deploying a strong starting XI, though he'll undoubtedly be disappointed that his side couldn't pick up a victory by a heavier margin.
