Barcelona aimed to narrow the gap to Real Madrid to three points, but they were held to a draw for the second time by Celta Vigo in their La Liga match at Balaidos.
The match started with a penalty awarded within the first 10 minutes, as Marcos Alonso was called for handball after a VAR review. Robert Lewandowski successfully converted the penalty, putting Barcelona ahead. However, their lead was short-lived; Sergio Carreira capitalized on Barcelona’s high defensive line and equalized with a strike past Wojciech Szczesny.
Barcelona managed to retake the lead, thanks to Lewandowski once again, who netted his second of the night following a brilliant cross from Marcus Rashford. Yet, Celta responded with yet another equalizer, this time from Borja Iglesias.
What an unbelievable strike by Borja Iglesias! 😱
Celta equalize against Barcelona thanks to a stunning goal from the experienced striker. 💥
