Share this contentMADRID: Barcelona were spared an embarrassing night in Ibiza on Wednesday as Antoine Griezmann scored twice, including a 94th-minute winner in a 2-1 victory to send them through to the next round of the Copa del Rey.

Despite the tight scoreline, the win over Granada was hailed as a success, a return to the passing style and attacking philosophy of Barcelona that had been lost under Ernesto Valverde. Youngsters like Ansu Fati, Riqui Puig and Carles Perez all started while Griezmann was left to lead the attack in the absence of Messi and the injured Luis Suarez.

Puig was at fault, caught napping by Javi Perez, who nipped in to meet the cross from the left and finished smartly past Neto.
