Barcelona recorded a huge, impressive win on Saturday against in-form Sevilla, winning on the road, 2-0, to pull within two points of La Liga leaders Atletico Madrid. Lionel Messi and Ousmane Dembele each recorded a goal and an assist to dominate one of the strongest defenses we've seen in Europe, as Julen Lopetegui's team hadn't conceded to a Spanish opponent since mid January.
