Thierry Henry and Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored to give Barcelona a 2-0 victory at Xerez to open up a five-point lead over second-place Real Madrid in the Spanish league.
On the same day that Fifa opened a disciplinary case against Henry for a blatant hand ball that helped put France into the World Cup, the Barcelona striker turned Maxwell's pass through the hands of goalkeeper Renan Soares in the 46th minute for his second league goal.
Ibrahimovic chipped over Renan in injury time to make up for missed chances by Lionel Messi and Andres Iniesta.
It was the Sweden striker's ninth league goal.
