Barcelona added its seventh consecutive victory in LaLiga, a 3-2 away victory against Levante, in a game that had a very special fact: For the first time in history, the Catalan team was sanctioned three penalties against.
The three auctions had a different manager. The first due to a displacement by Dani Alves, 1-0, was by Morales. Three minutes later, there was a handball from Eric Garcia. The manager was Roger, but Ter Stegen rejected.
#OJOALDATO – Barcelona have been awarded THREE penalties against in the same match for the FIRST TIME in the ENTIRE history of La Liga.
What only happens once every 2,000 games (3 penalties awarded to a team) has happened twice in 8 days in La Liga.
Later, Aubameyang equalized with a header for Xavi’s men. On touch, Pedri again exposed his great moment: with good definition he made it 2-1. Barsa, owner of the ball, seemed to settle the match. But a stomp by Lenglet put the local team in the game and Melero equalized with a penalty.
Until Luuk de Jong headed in extra time after a cross from Jordi Alba: 3 to 2. For the Dutchman it was the seventh goal in 23 games with Barsa, as he is usually a substitute.
Luuk de Jong celebrates with Pedri.
Another with very effective numbers is Aubameyang, with seven goals in eight league games, since joining at the beginning of the year.
Barsa was twelve points behind Madrid, with one match pending. Of course, with eight dates to play, he is not considering taking away the title from Merengue, although the evolution of the team with Xavi is the best news for the future, consolidated in second place.
