Barcelona did not have a good time in Vigo, they drew 2-2 against Celta and the scenario facing the fight for La Liga was very complicated. Despite having been alone at the top with 69 points, if Real Madrid (68) defeats Espanyol (Sunday at 17) he will be the only leader with six dates remaining.
A wonderful free kick assist from Lionel Messi, who was unable to score the 700th goal of his career but managed to break a special barrier provision, left the Uruguayan Luis Suárez 1-0 upside, 20 minutes into the first half . However, already in the complement, the local reacted and tied the Russian Fedor Smolov (ST 5 ‘).
After the controversy and the revision of the VAR for a supposed penalty on the Argentine, not finally charged, the Uruguayan scorer reappeared, again assisted by the Flea at 22 ‘: he held in the area, put the left-handed tip and shouted 2-1, but on the end Iago Aspas had an excellent stopped ball and did not forgive. At 43 ‘, the Spaniard hit him outside the barrier and scored the 2-2 final.
In the discount, it could even be a victory for the homeowner if it were not for Marc André Ter Stegen, who diverted a heads-up at point-blank range from Nolito, although equality left a lot of flavor in Celta, who fights to avoid relegation ( he is 16th, eight points above the red zone), already very little in Barcelona, which can pay dearly for the stumble.
