Enter
Suarez's goal inspired the comeback

Marc-Andre Ter Stegen - 5/10

Ter Stegen's had a busy night in goal. His slightly late reaction on Vazquez's effort caused Barca to fall behind. He did make a save after the resumption of the second half but his parried effort fell straight to Muriel who doubled the lead.

Sergi Roberto - 5/10

Roberto was as usual consistent in the full back role. He did have five interceptions but was disappointing going forward as he failed to put any good crosses into the box.

Gerard Pique - 7/10

Pique had a wonderful chance on the far post to equalize but his poor anticipation and balance led to the ball going off his rear. He did prevent Sevilla going 3-0 up when he tracked back and cleared Navas' shot on the goal line. It was suspected he might have been playing through injury but that did not stop him from blocking three shots.

Samuel Umtiti - 6/10

Umtiti made a total of three clearances and made his presence known in the opposing box as he had a total of two attempts in the game.

Jordi Alba - 5/10

Just like his fellow full back, Alba also did not provide any attacking edge as he put in zero successful crosses in the entire game despite putting in three accurate long balls.

Andres Iniesta - 6/10

Iniesta completed the game with two key passes and four long balls before coming off in the 80th minute.

Ivan Rakitic - 6/10

It was a quiet game for the former Sevilla man as he could notch up only shot on goal, capping off with a total of 84 passes with four accurate long passes in ot he box

Paulinho - 5/10

The Brazilian did have the highest pass completion rate with 97% but he failed to make any significant contribution either with his passing or goal threat.

Ousmane Dembele - 5/10

Dembele had a fair game as he completed the game having registered 35 touches along with his two key passes and crosses respectively but was dispossessed four times before being coming off in the 57th minute.

Luis Suarez - 7/10

Suarez did have seven shots but that wasn't a true reflection of his evening as he did not have any proper service from his full backs or wingers. However, he did break the deadlock in the 88th minute which splurged a late comeback from the Catalans.

Phillipe Coutinho - 7/10

Coutinho got his opportunity of starting on the left wing and he had decent game, registering a tally of five dribbles, two shots and three key passes but lacked output in the final third of the pitch.

Substitutes

Lionel Messi - 8/10

Messi was brought in the 57th minute and had immediate impact on the game. He had a total of four shots and 39 touches and scored the important equalizing goal in the 89th minute to clinch a point for Barca.

Denis Suarez - N/A

The Spaniard came on as a replacement for Paulinho in the 76th minute.

Paco Alcacer - N/A

Alcacer was introduced in the 80th minute to provide more attacking force.
