By Izuchukwu Okosi

Teenage sensation Ansu Fati scored a goal but picked up a hamstring injury in Barcelona’s 3-3 draw away to Celta Vigo on Saturday, Prime Business Africa reports.

The six goal thriller was interim manager, Sergi Barjuan’s final game in charge of the Catalans before legendary Xavi Hernandez steps in to take charge full time.

Sergio Busquets converted the second goal in the 18th minute while Dutch forward Memphis Depay nodded in the third goal 17 minutes later.

Barcelona thought they had cruised to a comfortable lead but the hosts scored thrice in the second half, twice from Iago Aspas and strike by Nolito for a share of the spoils.
