Barcelona opened 2023 in a very exciting way after coming from a 1-0 deficit against Las Palmas in the first half into an important 2-1 win in the 19th round of the Spanish League.
Munir El Haddadi put the hosts ahead in the 12th minute, and Barcelona presented one of its worst performances this season throughout the first half.
In the 55th minute, Ferran Torres was able to equalize for Barcelona, before Ilkay Gundogan won a penalty kick and scored it in the last minute, giving Barcelona three valuable points.
With this victory, Barcelona succeeded in breaking its biggest knot in the last two seasons by winning away from home after falling behind in the result.
Over the course of the last 7 matches in which Barcelona trailed outside its stadium in La Liga, it lost 4 times and tied 3 others, but Xavi’s squad against Las Palmas finally untied this knot and returned to Catalonia with victory.
With this victory, Barcelona reaches 41 points in third place, 7 points behind leaders Real Madrid and Girona.
