FC Barcelona came from behind to defeat Alaves 3-1, putting pressure on Real Madrid for first place in LaLiga.
The Catalan club is currently in first place with 34 points. Barcelona would have two more points than Real Madrid, who plays Girona this Sunday. The goals were scored by Lamine Yamal and a brace from Dani Olmo to complete Barcelona's comeback after conceding from the first minute. Barcelona comes back against Alaves, who didn't enjoy their lead. The Catalan club fell behind after just 43 seconds with a goal from Pablo Ibanez. However, Barcelona would have plenty of time to recover. In the 8th minute, young Lamine Yamal equalized, scoring his first goal of the season in La Liga. According to Misterchip, Lamine Yamal has scored his 19th La Liga goal at 18 years and 139 days old. Raul Gonzalez, Real Madrid's historic captain, scored his 19th La Liga goal at 18 years and 215 days old. They are the two youngest players to reach that number in the history of the Spanish league. The Catalans looked to take the lead and, after a great save by Joan Garcia, put together a play that Dani Olmo finished off to put Barca ahead. Lamine Yamal, Olmo, and Casado tried their luck with several shots, but the Alaves defense protected Sivera's goal. Furthermore, the Victorians still had time to put the fear into Barcelona in the final minutes, going all out for the equalizer. With six minutes remaining, Joan Garcia won a one-on-one against the recently substituted Guridi, but the referee disallowed him for offside. In the final counter-attack of the match, Olmo received a pass from Lamine Yamal and crossed the ball into the back of the net past Sivera to make it 3-1.
