Lamine Yamal survives horror challenge to deliver Barcelona masterclass as La Liga champions beat 10-player Villarreal

Clean sheet against Villarreal Garcia recorded five saves and secured a clean sheet in Sunday's 2-0 win over Villarreal.

Impact Garcia was on for another great match in net Sunday, with the goalie securing a clean sheet after five saves. This marks a second consecutive assist for the goalie, now with six in 12 appearances this season. He faces Espanyol in a derby match next time out, tough to earn a clean sheet in any derby match, despite the opponent.

Three saves in win Joan Garcia had three saves and allowed one goal in Tuesday's 2-1 victory against Eintracht Frankfurt.

Impact Garcia conceded again in his third Champions League start, though he made three saves and was effective claiming crosses. He has yet to record a clean sheet, allowing five goals and making 11 saves. He now shifts back to league action versus Osasuna on Saturday.

Concedes three in win Joan Garcia made two saves and allowed three goals in Saturday's 5-3 win versus Betis.

Impact Garcia kept a clean sheet in his first game returning from injury, but has since conceded in four straight matches in all competitions, giving up eight goals and making nine saves. Previously, he had allowed five goals and made 18 saves in his first seven games, with three clean sheets. His next appearance will be in the Champions League against Eintracht Frankfurt on Tuesday.

Concedes Goal Against Atletico Joan Garcia made one save and allowed one goal in Tuesday's 3-1 victory over Atletico Madrid.

Impact Garcia has now conceded only three goals across Barcelona's last five league matches, recording two clean sheets in that span. He made a solid save in the 52nd minute, but overall he wasn't heavily tested as Barcelona controlled most of the possession. His next challenge will come against a strong Real Betis side fighting for a Champions League spot, which should provide another significant test for Barcelona's defense. However, based on their league form, they have shown few signs of struggling this season.

Allows one in win Garcia made one save and conceded one goal during Saturday's 3-1 win over Alaves.

Impact Garcia saw Pablo Ibanez appearing unmarked at the six-yard box to beat him with less than a minute into the game but bounced back with a miraculous stop to deny what would've been a 2-1 lead for the opposition halfway through the opening frame. The goalkeeper didn't see much action during the rest of the contest and that led to another disappointing stat line for those who picked him for fantasy teams. And things won't get much easier for Garcia as his team hosts Atletico Madrid on Tuesday before visiting fifth-placed Real Betis next weekend.

Keeps clean sheet in return Garcia (knee) made two saves and kept a clean sheet during Saturday's 4-0 win over Athletic Bilbao.

Impact Garcia returned to the net after being sidelined for more than two months and picked up from where he left off, showing his usual safety the few times he was called into action to keep his fourth clean sheet in seven league starts this season. This is great news for Barcelona's coaching staff as Garcia appears to still be seen as the team's first choice at the net ahead of veteran Wojciech Szczesny.

Will start vs. Athletic Club Garcia (knee) has been confirmed as the starting goalkeeper for Saturday's game against Athletic Club, per manager Hansi Flick during Friday's pre-match press conference.

Impact "You're right, he's going to start," he said when asked about Garcia's chances of being the starter now that he's fully fit and ready to play. Garcia's return to the XI means Wojciech Szczesny will return to the bench.

Training Wednesday Garcia (knee) is back in training Wednesday, according to his club.

Impact Garcia is back from his injury in some capacity this week, as the goalie was back on grass and involved in goalie training. This leaves the player nearing his return, appearing to be in a much better spot as he flung himself to make saves. He will then look to be an option after the break, possibly reclaiming his starting role Nov. 22 against Athletic.

Aims return after break Garcia (knee) is aiming a return after the international break, coach Hasni Flick said in the press conference, according to Managing Barca.

Impact Garcia has been back in training this week and improving well towards his return but the game against Celta Vigo on Sunday is coming too soon for the goalkeeper. He is aiming a return after the international break and will likely resume his starting role between the posts, pushing Wojciech Szczesny back to the bench.

Returns to team training Garcia (knee) is back training with the team for the first time since the knee surgery, as seen in the training video the club posted.

Impact Garcia has rejoined team training after undergoing surgery in late September and missing eight straight matches. However, it does not seem that he will be rushed straight back from the start as coach Hansi Flick stated earlier that the goalkeeper will return in the first game after the international break.
