Rafinha trains alone; Xavi given ovation by his teammates

Barçelona returned to training on Sunday morning to do some light work to follow up from Saturday's 2-0 win over Espanyol.

Luis Enrique had all his players available to him apart from Rafinha, who worked on his own away from the group. 

The Brazilian played for over an hour at Cornella-El Prat before being taken off for Jeremy Mathieu, who took the sent off Jordi Alba's place at left-back.

Barça are preparing for Tuesday's La Liga match at home to Getafe.

Thomas Vermaelen was fully involved after receiving the green light to return to training and Xavi also played a key role in the session.

Barça's captain played his 500th La Liga game on Saturday and was given an ovation by his teammates in the dressing room for reaching such an impressive number of appearances.
