His epic comeback Barcelona in their 3-2 win over Celta de Vigo at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium for La Liga. Robert Lewandowski -2 and Joao Cancelo They turned the result around for the culés, who started losing 2-0 because of his screams Jorgen Larsen and Anastasios Douvikas.
Barcelona pulled the trigger and got back into the game in the last 10 minutes. Lewandowski’s double, in the 81′ and 85′, plus Cancelo’s agonizing goal in the 89′ gave them a victory that seemed impossible.
Apart from the final relief and joy, it was not a good game for the culés who were at a disadvantage from the 19th minute due to Larsen. In a negative second half, Douvikas stepped up for the visit to 76 and history seemed doomed. But because of the weight of their players, because of Celta’s inability to get more light and because of the figure of Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Barcelona held everything.
