In a thrilling match on Saturday, La Liga leaders Barcelona overcame a two-goal deficit to defeat Celta Vigo 4-3. Raphinha's stoppage-time penalty increased Barcelona's lead over Real Madrid at the top of the league to seven points.
After a hat-trick from Borja Iglesias for the visitors, the Catalans were behind 3-1 in the last 30 minutes. However, goals from Dani Olmo and Raphinha tied the game at 3-3. When Raphinha scored to clinch the three points and Dani Olmo earned a penalty deep into extra time, it looked like the game would end in a tie. In the 98th minute, Raphinha took the initiative and scored his 30th goal of the season in all competitions by blasting the ball into the top corner. The outcome puts Real Madrid under further strain when they play Athletic Bilbao, who are now in fourth position, on Sunday. With 43 points, Celta Vigo is in seventh place.
