Barcelona continues its poor performances and draws with Rayo Vallecano

Barcelona stumbled again in the Spanish League, after drawing 1-1 with Rayo Vallecano in the fourteenth round of the Spanish League.

The Catalan club's poor performances continue recently, which began with a loss in El Clásico, then a hard-fought victory over Real Sociedad 1-0, then a loss to Shakhtar in the Champions League, then a difficult victory over Alaves 2-1.

Rayo took the lead in the 39th minute through Unai Lopez, and Barcelona kept trying to make an adjustment until they got their way with an own goal through Floria Lejeune, the home team's defender.

With this draw, Barcelona reached 31 points in third place, knowing that it may lose this position if Atletico Madrid wins in the evening over Mallorca and reaches the same number of points with the goal advantage of the Rojiblancos.

At the same time, the difference between Barcelona and its eternal rival, Real Madrid, could reach 4 points if Carlo Ancelotti’s squad succeeds in defeating Cadiz on Sunday.

Girona leads the Spanish League standings with 34 points, and will face Athletic Bilbao on Monday at the end of the 14th round matches.

Barcelona's draw comes a few days before a decisive match against Porto at the Luis Companis Olympic Stadium, which will determine the fate of Xavi Hernandez's squad in the Champions League.
