BARCELONA PLAYER RATINGS: Marc-Andre Ter Stegen – 6. After three successive defeats at Camp Nou, Barca needed a win – though their Champions League hopes were helped by Sevilla drawing and Atletico losing. The German made a straightforward save after five minutes, then raged at his defence on 18 after Mallorca opened them up. The conceded goal wasn’t on him. EPA
Jordi Alba – 8. Heavily involved with 56 passes in the first half alone. Set up Depay’s opener with smart ball forward, his ninth assist of the season. Then almost saw a second similar ball led to an own goal on 30. Cut out a dangerous 40th minute Mallorca attack but bullied off the ball in a 78th minute one. Booked. AFP
Ronald Araujo – 6. Signed a new contract midweek and headed in a 22nd minute cross – offside. Beaten to the ball for Mallorca’s goal and appealed, incorrectly, for offside. Reuters
Gerard Pique – 6. Took a risk starting as he wasn’t fit, but he’s needed in defence. Neat side-line trick to beat an opponent, then started the move which led to the opening goa. Sadly, it was his last involvement as he came off injured on 27. Getty
Dani Alves – 7. Came infield to cross in a game Barca dominated with 75 per cent of possession against the side fighting relegation. Worthy role. AFP
Gavi – 7. Picked up his fourth yellow card in five games in front of the 62,789 crowd. Needs to calm things – and he did as he had two efforts on target. He also plays with his laces undone. "He says that's how he's comfortable, that it's good for him, that we don't need to worry,” said his manager Xavi. EPA
Sergio Busquets – 8. Central to Barcelona’s play. Wrestled to the ground in the 41st minute, but Depay wasted the ensuing free-kick. Struck the second goal on 53, a left foot strike through the defence. And how Camp Nou loved the rare goal from their most experienced man on the pitch. Reuters
Frenkie De Jong – 7. Got around the pitch and looking confident, a fine footballer who Barca – and Xavi - wants to keep. Not his best Barcelona season but he’s in demand. Four games to go this season and as he said after, the priority of reaching the Champions League has been reached…but Barca must improve next season. AFP
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang – 7. Fifth-minute header well saved and it was his head across goal which set up Torres. Came off in the second, but he’s played a part in getting Barca up the table into second and a top four Champions League spot. They’re now nine points clear of Betis in fifth. AFP
Ferran Torres – 6. Played as a wide forward and little involved in the first half but heavily involved in the attack before Barcelona’s second. And then he thought he’d scored the third, after initially hitting the crossbar. He was relieved as he celebrated, less so when the goal was disallowed. Getty
Memphis Depay – 8. Volleyed his side ahead after 24 minutes, controlling an Alba pass and striking low past the strangely static goalkeeper. Encouraging performance. Getty
SUBS: Eric Garcia (Pique 28’) – 6. Played in front of a nervous crowd who don’t trust him as much as their legendary defender. Getty
Ansu Fati (Aubameyang 75’) – 6. Back on the bench and a huge cheer when he warmed up and an even bigger one when he came on. AFP
Ousmane Dembele Torres 75’) – 6. On for after recovering from tonsillitis. Unusually wasteful. AFP
