Player Ratings : Mallorca 0-1 Barcelona

Mallorca

Dudu Aouate - 6: Could do nothing about the goal, and made some more crucial saves to keep his side in it.

Felipe Mattioni - 5: Defended adequately, but often tried too much going forward, when there were better options.

Nunes - 6: A valiant performance at the back, never gave an inch.

Ivan Ramis - 5: Didn't make any serious mistakes, but did not exert too much pressure either.

Ayoze - 5: Held his own down the flank, but hardly made an impact going forward.

Mario - 4: Afforded Barca far too much space in the midfield, allowing them to dominate possession.

Marti - 5: Like his midfield partner, failed to make life uncomfortable for Barca's midfielders.

Borja Valero - 7: The host's best player, was involved in all their attacks, and was unlucky to see a free-kick bounce back off the post.

Gonzalo Castro - 6: Looked lively early on, but faded completely as the match went on.

Victor - 6: Lent support to Aduriz up front, but didn't create much.

Pedro - 6: Had moments of excitement, but also went through periods of inactivity.
