Barcelona boss Gerardo Martino was delighted with his side's first-half display as they brushed aside Real Sociedad 4-1 at the Camp Nou on Tuesday to extend their winning start to the league campaign to six games.
.
After being out-possessed for the first time in more than five years in the 4-0 victory over Rayo Vallecano at the weekend, Barca looked more like their old selves with 68 percent of the ball as they pulled Sociedad to pieces in the first period.
.
Goals from Neymar, Lionel Messi and Sergio Busquets put them 3-0 up at the break, and Marc Bartra rounded off the scoring for the hosts after Alberto de la Bella had pulled a goal back for Sociedad.
.
"I am happy with everything that we saw. We want to have variation in our play, a change of pace and vertical attacks and it was all there, more in the first- half than in the second.
.
"However, we maintained our pressing for the whole match and that is sensational news for us."
Barcelona is doing very well right about now in every competition so they are very fine. Lionel Messi is on fire for them!
