Frenkie de Jong's late winner gives Barcelona a much-needed win. This was an incredibly difficult game for the visitors despite Alaves entering this one in the relegation zone.
The first half was a tight affair with few chances - Pique missed a close-range header, but there weren't many openings.
And the second half followed a similar pattern: Barcelona dominated possession but struggled to create as the hosts grew into the game.
Alaves could have taken the lead through Joselu when his late header flew wide, but it was Barcelona who snatched the points when Frenkie de Jong turned in Torres' selfless squared pass. Mendez missed a late chance to equalise, but the visitors held on for an important win.
