1. Xavi- this was a far more fluid attack than we've seen previously from Lucho's Barça, and Mr. Moving Pivot was the lynchpin making it all happen.
2. Mathieu - the fluidity lead to more exposure at the back, and Mathieu was spot-on smothering Granada's breakthroughs.
3. Messi- with Xavi the engine to bring the attack to the middle, Messi the Creator goes steroid.

Alves, Neymar
