La Liga - 2012/2013

Mascherano making himself small. This has been a competitive match during the last half hour.
 
This match has been very entertaining. Not bad for a match which seemed a forgone conclusion after half an hour.
 
Iniesta has been the best player for Barcelona over the last few matches for me. Some of his play has been out of this world, a joy to watch.

I'd agree. Not near his best today but delightful in recent matches.
 
Busquets looked at Jordi Alba similarly as to how a father would look proudly at his son, after that shoulder to the face.
 
So no undefeated record for this season then.
Great spirit there from Sociedad.
 
Mascherano scores the 7th or 8th own goal of the season. LEGEND !!
 
So, Guardiola/Vilanova era results at the Anoeta:

2010/11: 1-2 defeat (after going 1-0 up on 29')
2011/12: 2-2 draw (after going 2-0 up on 11')
2012/13: 2-3 defeat (after going 2-0 up on 25')

Hmm... I see a pattern :D
 
I know it was more a question of "Can Barca make a comeback or is that finally their first loss?"

Well now it's upon Atletico not to bottle it and lose as well.

Ah right nevermind, misread your question. Thought you said "Is this the first loss for Barca in La Liga this season?"
 
So far, this is his record over the last year or so. The figures in blue are last years, and those in green, this years. The rectangle represents the month of January for 2012 and 2013. He needs to score another 4 goals in the last competitive la liga match against Osasuna to match what he did last January:

So far, he is 6 goals up for the same period.
 
After the match Pique tweeted:
Temporada 12-13: 7 faltas cometidas, 5 amarillas y 1 roja

That's
2012-2013 season: 7 fouls committed, 5 yellows and 1 red

I guess he's feeling a little persecuted.
