Barcelona beat Celta Vigo after dramatic comeback

Barcelona complete a late comeback to return to the top of La Liga and extend their unbeaten run to six games

BBC SPORT

Joao Cancelo snatched a late win for Barcelona as they returned to the top of La Liga with a fightback against Celta Vigo.

Celta were 2-0 up with nine minutes remaining after goals from Jorgen Strand Larsen and Tasos Douvikas.

But two clinical finishes in the space of just four minutes from Robert Lewandowski rescued Barcelona’s hopes.

And Cancelo completed the comeback as he met a Gavi ball and drilled a composed volley past Ivan Millar.

Barcelona now top La Liga thanks to a superior goal difference over Girona, with both sides on 16 points.

Barca were regularly undone at the back, with Celta’s Luca de la Torre, Iago Aspas and Jonathan Bamba weaving through their defence.
