Amidst all the displays of attacking and defensive prowess that Barcelona possess, one moment stood out in the game. The moment belonged to Barcelona's 34-year-old goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny. Having come out of retirement to replace the injured Marc Andre Ter-Stegen, the Polish goalkeeper has re-entered his prime. Szczęsny is not only stopping shots at goals but also dribbling past opposition strikers, replicating prime Manuel Neuer. In the 29th minute of the match, Szczesny dribbled past two Osasuna strikers who were pressing on him while he received a backpass from Inigo Martinez.
