    It was an anti-climatic game that saw Deporto stick to an expected conservative game plan. Barca had their chances, but Deporto's goalkeeper Aranzubia was stellar.

    The only real story for the night was Messi coming off the bench and scoring his 40th league goal to preserve his record 17 game scoring streak.

    However, Barca seems to be missing their magic despite the win. They will need to find their magic soon as they head into a Champions League match that has them down.
