( CNN ) -- While Zlatan Ibrahimovic showed more evidence of his importance to Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday , Barcelona responded with an ominous warning of the club 's powers even without Lionel Messi . With the four-time world player of the year battling to be fit for Wednesday 's visit by the French league leaders , having injured his hamstring in last week 's 2-2 draw , Cesc Fabregas put up his hand for a role in the second leg of the Champions League quarterfinal . In a Messi-esque performance , the Spain midfielder took his chance to impress as he scored his first hat-trick for Barcelona in a 5-0 thrashing of Mallorca that kept the Catalan side 13 points clear of second-placed Real Madrid in La Liga . Alexis Sanchez , another midfielder who has struggled to consistently impress since his 2011 arrival at the Camp Nou , chimed in with the other two goals . The match was also notable for the second-half introduction of French defender Eric Adibal , making his first senior appearance since his liver transplant last April . By that stage Tito Vilanova 's side , much-changed from the trip to Paris , were already five goals ahead as both Fabregas and Sanchez netted twice in the opening period , toying with the visiting defense . Fabregas was taken off as a precaution after completing his treble with an assist from Andres Iniesta , but Sanchez hobbled off late with an injury that casts doubt on his fitness for the PSG clash . Barca hope to have Messi back for that match , as his injury is not as bad as feared . The Argentine netted the opening goal of the first leg , his 57th this season , but it was Ibrahimovic who had the last word as he set up a late equalizer . The Sweden forward , who was able to play -- and also score -- last week after having his European suspension halved , has now netted 26 league goals this season following another opportunistic effort in Saturday 's 2-0 win at Rennes . Ibrahimovic finished off from close range in time added on after halftime substitute David Beckham chipped the keeper , denying the veteran Englishman his first goal since signing in January . Jeremy Menez had earlier scored a fine individual goal as Qatar-funded PSG moved seven points clear at the top of the table after the club 's first win at Rennes since 2002 . Real Madrid , meanwhile , came from behind to crush Levante 5-1 as Mesut Ozil scored two late goals after fellow substitute Cristiano Ronaldo also netted -- his 29th in the league , second best behind Messi 's 43 . Striker Gonzalo Higuain volleyed a spectacular equalizer while Kaka put Real 2-1 ahead at the break with a penalty . It continued Real 's form from last week 's 3-0 Champions League win over Galatasaray , ahead of Tuesday 's trip to Turkey . The Istanbul side went seven points clear in the Turkish Super League on Saturday with a 3-1 win at home to Mersin , as veteran striker Didier Drogba scored twice . Real Sociedad consolidated fourth place in Spain with a 4-2 win against Malaga which established a four-point lead over the visitors with eight games to play . It dented any hopes Malaga have of playing in next season 's Champions League -- if the club 's appeal against a suspension for financial fair play discrepancies is successful -- and placed even more importance on Tuesday 's second leg of the quarterfinal tie away to German side Borussia Dortmund , which is level at 0-0 . Juventus bounced back from last week 's Champions League defeat against Bayern Munich by moving 12 points clear in Italy 's Serie A with a 2-1 win over bottom club Pescara on Saturday . Montenegro striker Mirko Vucinic scored two late goals before a long-range effort from Emmanuel Cascione ensured a tense finish . Second-placed Napoli host Genoa on Sunday , when third-placed AC Milan travel to Fiorentina .
