Barca’s unbeaten run over Atletico at Camp Nou extends to 16 league games! Xavi’s men all but wrapped the win up in the first half once Araujo made it 3-1.
Alves added to Barca’s cushion early in the second half before Suarez pulled a goal back for the visitors. Alves’ dismissal for a high foot threatened to ruin the hosts’ day, but they responded well to fend a muted Atleti off.
The Camp Nou fans also saw former Arsenal striker, Aubameyang make his debut for Barca.
