Ridiculous Araujo red sums up Barcelona horror show

Goalkeeper & Defence

Joan Garcia (4/10):

Had the ball in his net six times and had the offside flag to thank for one disallowed goal in particular, where Santos' strike slipped through his grasp far too easily and into the net. Would have gone down as a goalkeeping howler if it stood.

Jules Koundé (3/10):

Got his feet in an almighty mess to score a highly-avoidable own goal. His lack of awareness in the six-yard box was astounding as he somehow managed to almost tackle the ball off Ferran and into the net. Sent flying by Garnacho just after half-time as the Argentine set up one of Chelsea's disallowed goals.

Ronald Araújo (2/10):

Summed up Barca's first-half display with a mindless challenge on Cucurella to earn himself a second yellow card. The fact that his first was earnt for dissent makes things even worse. Wearing the captain's armband for such a club, better discipline must be demanded.

Pau Cubarsí (5/10):

Did the best he could to prevent the score-line being any bigger, but the young defender was beaten far too easily by Estevao as he skipped inside to score.

Alejandro Balde (5/10):

Played Fernandez onside for Chelsea's final goal as Barca's high line came unstuck once again. The full-back had no answers for the dangerous Estevao as the Brazilian shone.

Midfield

Eric García (5/10):

Shifted back into centre-back after the red card, and put in a shift despite the poor performance from his side overall.

Frenkie de Jong (4/10):

Gave the ball away poorly in the build-up to the second goal and was never able to take control of the midfield, as Chelsea dominated throughout.

Fermín López (5/10):

Largely non-existent as Caicedo prevented him having any say on proceedings. The 22-year-old's most memorable contribution was a weak claim for a first-half penalty from a Chalobah challenge. Taken off after an hour by Flick.

Attack

Lamine Yamal (5/10):

Arguably lost out in two battles in one night - Cucurella got the better of him, and so did Estevao as the two 18-year-olds competed for the spotlight. Other than an early through-ball to Ferran and a scuffed shot easily saved, Yamal impacted the game little and was substituted with ten minutes to play, to jeers from the home crowd.

Robert Lewandowski (5/10):

Similarly to Fermín, the veteran Pole hardly had a touch of the ball and much less an opportunity on goal. Was given very little service in his hour on the pitch, in fairness.

Ferran Torres (3/10):

Far from his finest day at the office. Missed a huge opportunity at 0-0, clean through with the goal gaping. Torres then played his role in failing to clear Koundé's scrappy own goal, and was hooked at half-time by Flick to be replaced by Rashford.

Subs & Manager

Marcus Rashford (5/10):

Replaced Ferran at half-time and made no more of an impact, as Barca's threat became even less in the second period.

Raphinha (5/10):

Had a weak shot on target saved by Sanchez, but in half an hour on the pitch also offered very little.

Andreas Christensen (5/10):

Brought on to shore up the midfield and struggled to do that, seeing an ambitious strike fly wide in stoppage time as he hoped to impact proceedings against his former club.

Dani Olmo (N/A):

Replaced Lamine Yamal late on and barely had a touch of the ball.

Gerard Martín (N/A):

Came on for Balde in the final 10 minutes.

Hansi Flick (4/10):

The high line did not work, and Barcelona were second best long before the sending-off. Flick's substitutions did not help, either, and he can have no complaints about the deserved result.
