Celta are enjoying probably their best spell of possession of the match so far in Barcelona's half, but the visitors are defending better. Celta Vigo 2-3 Barcelona The visitors have made a bright start to this second half. Frenkie De Jong just floated a lovely ball out wide to Lamine Yamal.

Robert Lewandowski gave Barcelona the lead with a debatable award of a penalty, only for Sergio Carreira to equalise a moment later.

Radu should really do better but he ends up parrying the shot into the side-netting and Barcelona have the lead again! Celta Vigo 2-2 Barcelona Oh my, what a game! Ferran Jutgla gets down Barcelona's left and pulls a ball back to the edge of the box for the oncoming Borja Iglesias.
