Cancelo 9.0, de Jong 8.5 | Barcelona 3-0 Levante: Player ratings | OneFootball

FC Barcelona emerged victorious against Levante at Spotify Camp Nou. A much-needed victory, this was exactly the kind of result the Catalan giants required to bounce back after two tough losses.

The 3–0 win was made possible thanks to goals from Marc Bernal, Frenkie de Jong, and Fermin Lopez. With these three points, Hansi Flick’s side returns to the top of the La Liga table as well.

Here are the ratings for FC Barcelona players.

Joan Garcia: 7.5/10

Not exactly tested to the limit by Levante for much of the game, but definitely needed to be alert near the start of the match. Made some crucial saves, and his distribution under pressure was outstanding as well.

Jules Kounde: 7.5/10

Much better in this game, with both his defensive and offensive capabilities being on display. Made good overlapping runs and also did well to defend his flank throughout the game.

Eric Garcia: 8.0/10

Brilliant in his duels and in possession, Eric Garcia was always alert to the danger and sharper than others to get to the ball. Also provided a great assist for the opening goal.

Gerard Martin: 6.5/10

Conceded a yellow card in the first half, but did well to distribute possession of the ball. However, he should have done better with his duels.

Joao Cancelo: 9.0/10

Simply untouchable today, Joao Cancelo ran the show against Levante. From his dribbling to his amazing chance-creating ability, the Portuguese full-back was a step ahead of everyone and even got a wonderful assist to his name.

Frenkie de Jong: 8.5/10

Dictated the game for Barça as their engine in midfield, from his ball carrying to his distribution. A brilliant performance in midfield, and he also ended up getting a goal for himself.

Marc Bernal: 8.0/10

Top performance from the Spanish midfielder, who did extremely well to win his duels in midfield and distribute the ball well. Also managed to open the scoring for Barcelona with a great finish.

Lamine Yamal: 8.0/10

A bit more reserved with his passing today, but he had a few moments of brilliance as well throughout the game. His ability to draw defenders to himself often gave his teammates more space to make use of, and he even managed to get an assist.

Dani Olmo: 6.5/10

Sharp enough in tight spaces, Dani Olmo did well to pass the ball to his teammates from difficult angles and linked up well with them. Decent performance.

Raphinha: 7.5/10

Despite not getting on the scoreboard or capitalising on a few good opportunities to score, Raphinha’s work rate in this game was commendable. In fact, even the crowd could not help but applaud his selflessness.

Robert Lewandowski: 5.5/10

Really timid performance, with no clear intention or intensity from the Polish veteran. He should have been sharper in this game, but he ended up looking very unconvincing.

Fermin Lopez: 8.0/10

Excellent intensity and movement from the Spaniard after coming on; he was too much for the opposition. Eventually, he ended up scoring a sensational goal from distance as well.

Pedri: 7.0/10

Calm and composed, Pedri stepped onto the pitch and fit right in. As if he never needed time to get moving again, the Spaniard was a joy to watch on his return.

Ferran Torres: 6.0/10

Decent performance, got into some good positions.

Ronald Araujo: N/A

Not enough time or impact on the game to warrant a rating.

Roony Bardghji: N/A

Not enough time or impact on the game to warrant a rating.
