The 2-1 win at Osasuna will be especially memorable for three players because it marked their debuts for Barça. João Cancelo, João Félix and Iñigo Martínez all played their part in the win at El Sadar.
Just two days after his loan to FC Barcelona was made official, João Cancelo came on at left-back after 59 minutes as a replacement for captain Sergi Roberto.
Though better known as a right-sided defender, he is used to playing on the other side of defence, and just moments after coming on he set up Robert Lewandowski for what was very nearly a goal from the latter.
With ten minutes left on the clock, João Félix came on for Oriol Romeu and took his place on the left of the midfield. Like his compatriot and namesake, he too was playing just two days after his loan from Atlético Madrid was announced.
He didn't see much of the ball in his 20 minutes on the pitch, but it was clearly important to get him used to his new side.
And with the game already into what would be ten minutes of injury time, Iñigo Martínez substituted Andreas Christensen in a straight swap between centre backs.
