Helvetia Anaitasuna 31-38 Barça: Still unbeaten

Helvetia Anaitasuna never stood much of a chance as Barça made it to ten wins in ten games at the 'Cathedral'. The Navarrans only managed to keep in contention for the first few minutes, and with Richardson and Makuc impressing, the Catalans were +5 after 22 minutes and looking unlikely to let their lead slip.

But they did. There were moments of uncertainty when the home side found themselves on top of their guests and managed to close the gap to three. Carlos Ortega's side never looked perturbed, however, and simply upped their game and marched off into a +9 lead at the blink of an eye, and eventually sailed home to another victory. 

Attention now switches to the Champions League on Wednesday and an 8.45pm CET start away to the mighty Magdeburg.
