A coup of authority, Barcelona wins 4-2 against Betis and remains in the fight
FC Barcelona managed to get a crucial win against Real Betis!
The game is over! FC Barcelona won 4-2 against Real Betis in a match that had become too complicated for Xavi Hernandez's team, but they managed to come back thanks to a hat trick from Ferran Torres.
Ferran Torres scored the first, second and fourth goals of the night, however, the hero of FC Barcelona is undoubtedly Joao Felix, who scored 2-3 for his club after having entered a few minutes earlier.
Xavi Hernandez does not seem to trust Joao Felix to be a starter for FC Barcelona, or at least that is what he has confirmed with his last 3 lineups, where, except for the Copa del Rey, he was not a starter in any of them.
Isco Alarcón scored a double for Real Betis, and was completing a great game that put Barcelona on the ropes, however it was not enough and Barca managed to turn it around with authority.
Barcelona maintains hope in La Liga:
Real Madrid achieved a spectacular victory against Almería. The merengue club won 3-2 after trailing 0-2 in the first half at the Santiago Bernabeu. Thus, FC Barcelona remains 7 points behind Carlo Ancelotti's team.
