Barcelona have cruised into a 3-0 half time lead in their La Liga clash with Osasuna thanks to goals from strike duo Ferran Torres and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

La Blaugrana are aiming to boost their Top Four hopes in the final game of weekend action in the Spanish top-flight with Torres putting them right on course for all three points.

The Catalans were handed a perfect chance to edge in front, after just 13 minutes, as Gavi was brought down inside the box, with Torres calmly stepping up to slot home from the penalty spot.

However, that early dominance was built on with a second goal on the 20 minute mark, as Torres raced on to Ousmane Dembele’s fantastic lofted pass, to cut inside and fire home.

Xavi’s side now find themselves within touching distance of an important victory, as Aubameyang continued his superb recent form, by prodding home another Dembele ball, to make it 3-0 before the interval.
