Wojciech Szczesny (7/10):

Continues to impress in goal in place of the injured Joan Garcia. Made some good reflex saves at important moments of the match.

Jules Kounde (6/10):

The Frenchman had his hands full with Mir but pulled off some important interceptions at the back when required.

Ronald Araujo (5/10):

Question marks have to be asked over his role in Elche’s goal. He played Mir onside on the halfway line and then didn’t close him down quickly enough as Barca’s lead was cut. 

Eric Garcia (6/10):

Some of his covering work got his side out of trouble on a couple of occasions. But was also caught out of position on occasion.

Alejandro Balde (7/10):

Showed a tremendous burst of pace to pounce on a loose ball and then drive at the Elche defence, before perfectly setting up team-mate Yamal for Barcelona’s opener. He does rely on his pace to get him out of trouble when out of position, though.
