Valladolid, Spain (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Barcelona capped the first half of the La
Liga season with a comfortable 3-0 win over Valladolid at the Estadio Nuevo
Jose Zorrilla on Saturday.
Xavi netted his first league goal of the season in the 20th minute, with
Daniel Alves doubling the lead just two minutes later. Lionel Messi then
scored his league-leading 15th goal of the campaign early in the second half
to seal the win.
Barca finished the first half of its league season without a loss in 19 games,
including 15 wins, and they now lead second-placed Real Madrid by eight points
ahead of Real's match with Malaga on Sunday.
Both goalkeepers were called upon to make saves in the opening 20 minutes with
Messi forcing a good stop from Valladolid's Justo Villar, while Barca
netminder Victor Valdes needed to be alert to keep out Diego Costa's effort.
However, Barca's class soon took over and they grabbed the lead minutes later
when a good cross from Alves was volleyed home by Xavi eight yards from goal.
Less than two minutes later, Barca took a 2-0 lead as Alves got down the right
wing and floated a ball towards the back post that ended up going over the
head of the keeper and into the net.
It was unclear whether Alves meant to cross the ball or not, but Barca was
able to take its two-goal lead into halftime when Valdes was able to parry a
powerful free kick from Borja Fernandez.
The game was then put away 11 minutes into the second half as Zlatan
Ibrahimovic got to the ball inside the area and slipped a pass to Messi in
front of goal, allowing the Argentine to easily sweep the ball past the keeper
with a first-time strike.
Deportivo moved into fourth place as they downed Athletic Bilbao 3-1, while
Alvaro Negredo's goal in the 10th minute was enough to lead Sevilla past
Almeria, 1-0.
