  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Barcelona inflicted Trabzonspor's first defeat of the Youth League season, but the young Catalans ripped that record to shreds, and did so without Yamal and Cubarsi. While both are now firmly established in the first-team, they are each eligible to play for Juliano Belletti's side. Neither were picked, and Barca have run out comfortable winners without them.

• DID YOU KNOW?

  Barcelona's Under-19s have also won the league and the Copa del Rey Juvenil. They are also set to contest the Spanish Champions Cup and so could end the season with four trophies.
