With Leo Messi back in Argentina to prepare for next weekend’s World cup clash against Brasil and Thierry Henry rested, Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola gave starting places to youngsters Bojan and Pedro Rodriguez alongside recent arrival Ibrahimovich in attack.

With Sporting looking to defend deep, it took a while for the new look line-up to gel, but after 17 minutes, the reigning champions took the lead.

Xavi Hernandez took a corner, Keita got a touch and Bojan was on hand to score at the far post. It was the perfect present for the young striker, who had celebrated his 19th birthday just three days ago.

Barcelona continued to control the game, but without creating clearcut chances and Ibrahimovich’s desire to open his account was obvious to anyone watching the game.
