Barcelona's Ferran Torres scored one goal and assisted another as his side held off Shakhtar Donetsk to maintain their perfect Group H record in the Champions League.
Torres opened the scoring in the 28th minute with a rebounded effort after Fermin Lopez hit the post.
The ex-Manchester City forward then set up Lopez for Barca's second eight minutes later.
Heorhii Sudakov scored a second-half consolation goal but the hosts held on.
