Barcelona beat Leganés and remain at the top of La Liga
Raphinha has a good performance and directly participates in the decisive goal
On the edge and with margin!
Barcelona had a tough game this Saturday, but managed to beat Leganés 1-0 at the Estadio Municipal de Butarque. The match is valid for the 31st round of La Liga 2024/25 . The decisive goal was an own goal, scored by defender Saénz, early in the second half. With this result, Barça reached 70 points in the Spanish Championship, and cannot be overtaken by Real Madrid (63) in this round.
Match Highlight
Striker Raphinha was the standout performer in this Barcelona victory . Not only for having the last touch of the ball before Sáenz’s own goal, but mainly for having participated in most of Barça’s attacking plays and also having contributed defensively. His willingness in a move towards the end of the first half, to prevent what would have been a goal by Dani Raba, was impressive. Raphinha has 28 goals and 22 assists in 2024/25.
Few goal chances
Barcelona failed to register a single shot on target against Leganés in the first half. Something that had not happened so far in 2025, against any opponent in any competition. Furthermore, Barça benefited from an own goal for the third time in this season’s La Liga, more than any other team in the competition (along with Sevilla).
