Barcelona's trip to the Mendizorrotza Stadium ended in disappointment as they fell to a lackluster 1-0 defeat against Alaves in La Liga. Despite a promising start, the Catalan giants conceded just before halftime when Ibrahim Diabate found the net in first-half stoppage time. Hansi Flick's side struggled to mount a comeback in the second half, leaving them empty-handed on the road.

Here's how each Barcelona player rated in this frustrating outing:

Goalkeeper & Defenders
The goalkeeper made a couple of crucial saves but couldn't keep a clean sheet. Jules Kounde won back possession twice and showed some lively moments in the final third. The defensive unit put their foot through the ball when needed and passed tidily, with Cortes standing out for his strong aerial presence and solid defensive work.

Midfielders
One midfielder was a positive influence at both ends, showing tidy passing. Casado created two good chances before being substituted after the hour mark. Another anchored the midfield with conviction but lacked quality on the ball. Pedri caught the eye after coming off the bench.

Forwards
Bardghji made several decent chances on the right flank but couldn't find the net. Another forward caused headaches for his marker but failed to score. Rashford made some driving runs and passed tidily, while one attacker struggled to pose a threat in the offensive end.
