Ronald Araujo (Pique, 45) 6 - Araujo has to be more careful after standing on a Getafe attackers foot to concede a penalty in the 68th minute. The defender soon made amends after heading home from a Messi corner.

BARCELONA RATINGS: Marc-Andre Ter Stegen 6 - Not much to do other than pick a deflected goal and penalty out of the back of the net. getty
Oscar Mingueza 6 - Dealt well with Getafe’s best threat in Kubo down the left-hand side. A heavy challenge in the first half saw the defender eventually withdrawn for Umtiti after carrying a knock into the second half. Getty
Gerard Pique 6 - The veteran defender dealt with everything that came his way when called upon. Withdrawn at half-time as Koeman changed the system. Barcelona missed Pique’s leadership in the second half. Getty
Clement Lenglet 6 - It could only get better for Lenglet after beginning the game with a yellow card and own goal that the French defender couldn’t do anything about. Unlucky not to get an assist after playing in Frenkie De Jong. Reuters
Jordi Alba 6 - Good runs up the flank linked a number of dangerous attacks but Messi couldn’t convert when Alba cut the ball back. Getafe rarely ventured down the Spain international’s side which meant there wasn’t much defensive work to do for Alba on the night. AP
Sergi Roberto 7 - Kept things ticking as Barcelona transitioned the ball forward and helped out the defence when required. Solid. AP
Sergio Busquets 8 - The experienced midfielder’s passing was on point after a precise ball picked out Messi perfectly to run through on goal and finish. Busquets didn’t put a foot wrong on the night, consistently finding small gaps in the Getafe midfield. Reuters
Frenkie De Jong 6 - The Dutchman made good forward runs but should have gone for goal when on the end of a Lenglet ball over the top. Moved to centre-back in the second half and didn’t look out of place. Getty
Pedri 6 - Failed to make an impact on the game but didn’t make any glaring mistakes either. Reuters
Antoine Griezmann 6 - A quiet game for the French forward who couldn’t influence the game before converting a penalty in the final minute. EPA
Lionel Messi 9 - A clinical performance from the Argentine. Getafe were warned early on after Messi hit the bar from outside the box and the Barcelona star man made no mistakes as he converted his next two chances. The starman was at the heart of all of Barca’s meaningful attacks on Thursday night. AP
SUBSTITUTES: Ilaix Moriba (Lenglet, 45) 6 - Comfortable on the ball. Ilaix looked to be through after Messi played the 18-year-old in towards goal and the midfielder should have been more selfish.
Trincao (Sergi Roberto, 64) 6 - Involved immediately with a couple of Barca attacks but lacked the cutting edge required to convert. EPA
