Barcelona continue to breathe down the necks of Real Madrid at the top of the La Liga table, thanks to a 4-1 away drubbing inflicted on Granada yesterday.

Madrid had ran out 3-0 winners earlier in the day when they beat Alaves at the Bernabeu and a Messi-less Barcelona needed to remain close to their title rivals.

The Blaugrana recorded a comfortable victory over lowly Granada, with goals coming from Luis Suarez, Paco Alcacer, Ivan Rakitic and Neymar.

There was a bit of beef in the game when tempers flared slightly - Ivan Rakitic being one of the hotheads.

The Croatian was annoyed after picking up a booking and decided to take his frustrations out on Granada's Andreas Pereira.

The former Sevilla man was caught on camera airing a bit of abuse in the direction of the on-loan Manchester United man.

Watch Rakitic venting here:


As per the subtitles from Directo Gol, Rakitic called Pereira a 'Son of a Bitch' and told him that he was getting relegated and going down to the second division of Spanish football.

Granada are in 19th place in La Liga at the moment, and are therefore in great danger of going drop.

However, one would not expect Pereira to remain with the side next season as the consensus appears to be that he is likely to return to United next season.
