Barcelona showed their fighting spirit once again with a 3-1 victory against Real Oviedo in LaLiga. The result keeps Barcelona unbeaten this season and strengthens their place in the title race.
Real Oviedo surprised the home crowd when they took the lead in the 33rd minute. The goal came after a defensive mistake, leaving Barcelona chasing the game. For a while, the visitors looked in control and put pressure on the Catalan side.
The second half brought a strong response. Barcelona equalised in the 56th minute through Eric García, who was quick to react to a rebound. That goal lifted the team and changed the pace of the match. Robert Lewandowski then scored a powerful header in the 70th minute to give Barcelona the lead. Later, Ronald Araújo sealed the result with another header in the 88th minute, making sure of all three points.
With this win, Barcelona moved up to second place in the league table with 16 points from six matches. They now sit just behind the leaders, keeping pressure at the top.
Barcelona also face challenges off the pitch. Their salary cap has been reduced for the new season, forcing the club to carefully manage finances. In addition, the reopening of Camp Nou has been delayed, which means Barcelona continue to play at alternate venues.
Despite these issues, the squad looks strong. Stars like Lamine Yamal and Robert Lewandowski are in fine form, while young talents add depth to the lineup. Injuries to Gavi and Fermín López remain setbacks, but the team is coping well.
The next challenge for Barcelona is a Champions League clash against Paris Saint-Germain. With confidence high after the comeback win, fans will expect another strong performance.
