#4 Real Betis started off brightly
Setien's men knew that if they were to have any chance against the Catalan giants, they needed to take the game to them from the start and that is exactly what they did.
The game was in 4th gear from the get-go as Real Betis threatened to afford absolutely no comfort to Valverde's men. They pressed high up the pitch and gave the Barcelona defence no time for complacency.
In fact, Antonio Adan, Betis' goalkeeper was called into action only in the 24th minute. By that time, Betis had missed two chances. First, when Andres Guardado's long-range strike missed the mark by a whisker and then when Joaquin skied a sitter after he was gifted the ball after a poor clearance.
But once the goals started going in, Real Betis could do nothing but be run over by the over-awing trickery of Lionel Messi and some excellent henchmanship from Luis Suarez.
