La Liga: Barcelona Edges In Clash Against Valencia

Barcelona grabbed a late winner against Valencia in their La Liga clash on Saturday night at the Mestalla in the Spanish La Liga.

It was a tightly contested game that witnessed flash points from both sides.

Both teams had a goal apiece ruled out, as they sought to find the lead in what was an evenly matched tie.

Polish striker, Robert Lewandowski, however, connected to a Raphinha’s pass and got the ball past the Valencia goalkeeper in the second half.

The win sends Barca to top of the league, leveled on points with Real who play on Sunday against Girona.
