Barcelona secured a 2-0 win over Getafe CF during their La Liga clash at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez stadium here on Saturday.
Despite Lionel Messi's absence, Barcelona managed to clinch a victory as Luis Suarez and Junior Firpo scored one goal each in the match to overpower Getafe CF.
Before taking a 1-0 lead, Barcelona missed quite a few chances to score a goal in the initial stages of the match. However, in the 41st minute of the game, Suarez managed to hand Barcelona a one-goal lead.
Firpo did not take much time to consolidate Barcelona's position in the match as he scored a stunning goal in the 49th minute. Getafe CF failed to open their account and faced a 2-0 defeat.
With four victories from seven matches in La Liga, Barcelona sit on the third position on the points table with 13 points.
