Athletic Bilbao 1-0 Barcelona ( Gaizka Toquero Pinedo 9′ goal)
Barcelona still have problems defending set pieces. Both Xavi and Seydou Keita fail to stop Gaizka Toquero Pinedo, who heads home from a Javier Yeste corner.
Athletic Bilbao 1-1 Barcelona ( Yaya Toure 30′ goal)
An absolute stunner from Yaya Toure. The Ivorian picks the ball up from inside his own half and evades three Bilbao defenders before shooting. A goal that would make the likes of Messi, Henry and Eto’o proud.
Athletic Bilbao 1-2 Barcelona ( Lionel Messi 55′ goal)
Great finish from Messi. Bilbao keeper Iraizoz gets a hand to Samuel Eto’o’s effort, but cannot stop Messi from firing home the rebound.
Athletic Bilbao 1-3 Barcelona ( Bojan Krkic 57′ goal)
Messi scored the last one, and the little Argentine sets turns provider for this goal. Athletic Bilbao are caught on the counter, and Krkic produces a good finish to double Barcelona’s lead.
Athletic Bilbao 1-4 Barcelona ( Xavi 64′ goal)
Fabulous free kick from Xavi. Not many better dead ball specialists in the world than him at this moment. It is all gone wrong for Bilbao after a dream start.
