Barcelona's seven-game winning streak came to an end just before the international break when they lost 1-0 to Real Sociedad in La Liga.


The defeat was a black mark on the team's record for November, which had been strong following wins over Espanyol in the league and Crvena Zvezda in the UEFA Champions League.


The unexpected defeat leaves Barcelona without a significant presence at the La Liga awards for the month of November, with Lamine Yamal, Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha all failing to be nominated for the Player of the Month award.

As announced by La Liga earlier today, only one Barcelona player is in contention for November's Player of the Month award - Dani Olmo.


The La Masia graduate scored a brace against Espanyol in the Catalan derby earlier this month, and his performance on that night was enough to earn him the nomination.Vinicius Jr, Takefusa Kubo, Arnau Martinez and Giuliano Simeone are also nominated in this category.


Also receiving a nomination this month is Marc Casado, who is one of the shortlisted players in the Best Under-23 Player category and looks to be the favourite.He faces competition from the likes of Fabio Silva, Luka Sucic, Barcelona loanee Vitor Roque and Javi Rodriguez.

The Blaugrana return to action against Celta Vigo at the Municipal de Balaidos later this week and will be looking to get back to winning ways. They face Brest and Las Palmas later in the month.
