Barcelona are third in the LaLiga standings on 44 points, seven behind leaders Real Madrid Barcelona secured a last-gasp 4-2 win at Real Betis on Sunday, as stoppage-time goals from substitute Joao Felix and striker Ferran Torres, who completed his hat-trick, helped to ease the pressure on manager Xavi Hernandez in a stuttering season.
Barcelona are third in the LaLiga standings on 44 points, seven behind leaders Real Madrid and five adrift of second-placed Girona, who host Sevilla later on Sunday.
After being thrashed by their bitter rivals Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup final and struggling in a comeback win over third-division side Unionistas to advance to the Copa del Rey quarter-finals last week, Barca were once again up against it but managed to rescue a valuable win.
Torres opened the scoring in the 21st minute tapping in a cross from the right by Pedri and he extended Barca’s lead from a rebound in the 49th, after a Lamine Yamal strike came back off the crossbar.
However, Betis struck back as Isco scored twice in four minutes to level the score.(HT)
