Barcelona began their match at Balaidos brightly, but they were quickly brought back to level terms by Celta Vigo in their La Liga encounter.
The game’s first goal came within the opening 10 minutes from the penalty spot. Marcos Alonso was adjudged to have handled the ball after a VAR review, giving Robert Lewandowski the opportunity to find the net from 12 yards. However, Barcelona’s lead was short-lived as Sergio Carreira exploited their high defensive line and scored to equalize against Wojciech Szczesny.
It’s all level in Balaídos! 🤝
Marcus Rashford’s attempt is saved, allowing Celta to counter and score 🔵

Just moments before Carreira’s goal, Marcus Rashford had a chance to double the lead for Barcelona, but their defensive strategy was once again called into question as Celta executed a swift break. They would be thrilled to have leveled the match so quickly after conceding to Lewandowski’s penalty.
The match has started at a thrilling pace at Balaidos, with plenty more action expected.
