Barcelona is holding the top position on the La Liga point table. They are planning to keep the La Liga throne at the Camp Nou but their performance could not prove it. After the international break, Barcelona has returned to the ground. It means the La Liga season has started again and Barcelona visited Leganes earlier today. It seems that after a long time, the newbie team was about to beat the Catalan giants. But, Barca found the victory by turning around in the 2nd half!
After a break for the international schedule, all-league competitions have started once again. But in their first match after the break, Barcelona could not provide their familiar eye-catchy performance. They conceded the goal at the beginning of the match and in the rest of the first half, they could not return to the game. But in the 2nd half, through the goal of Luis Suarez and Arturo Vidal, the team of Ernesto Valverde left the ground with the expected victory.

At the venue of Leganes Estadio Municipal de Butarque, earlier today, the home team faced the La Liga champion but Messi’s team won by a 2 – 1 goal. In the first half, the title-holder could not present any amazing or eye-catchy performance but it was really simple. In the 12th minute, they conceded the first goal and they are responsible for the goal. In the midfield, they lost control of the ball and En-Nesyri got the ball. From the right side, Morocco forward went into the box which was almost clear for him. He made an amazing Conakry shot and escaped the Barca goalkeeper Ter Stegen.
Before the break, the guest team Barcelona got just one real chance in 31st minute. But the head of the Uruguayan forward Suarez was stopped in exchange for the corner. At the beginning of the 2nd half, the La Liga champion could return to the game but bad luck. The head of the Spanish defender Gerard Pique was stopped by the post. Finally, in the 53rd minute, Barcelona returned to the game. From outside of the box, Lionel Messi made a free-kick and by jumping, Suarez made the head that found the net. In the new season of La Liga, it is the 7th goal of the Uruguayan forward. And it is the 5th assist of Messi in the season.
