FW - Luis Suárez - FC Barcelona

Barcelona’s front-line was effective against Sevilla, with Luis Suárez causing significant damage to the opposition in his striker role.

The Uruguayan international recorded an assist on the team’s second goal, and added a goal of his own from the penalty spot in the second half.

FW - Borja Iglesias - RCD Espanyol

Espanyol’s magical ride continues in 2018-19, now sitting second in the table after their win at Huesca. Two goals from Borja Iglesias was all they needed to secure that triumph.

The former Celta Vigo striker was clever with his runs at goal, making life difficult for the opposing defenders on Sunday.

FW - Philippe Coutinho - FC Barcelona

Barcelona were facing an important test on Saturday, as Sevilla certainly presented a formidable opponent. However, Philippe Coutinho provided an immediate sigh of relief for fans with a goal in only the second minute of the game.

Following an injury to Lionel Messi, the Brazilian did well to calm his team-mates with his smooth and confident play.
