The FC Barcelona arrived to Mestalla willing to recover his feelings in LaLiga, and although it attained to replace to the fright of Valencia, did not arrive him the reaction to win. The culés crashed in the wall of the 'che' and Garay and Messi sealed the equalised

The reaction was tremenda in Champions, but the FC Barcelona remained short in LaLiga. They went back the good feelings against Valencia brave, but his defence and a goal too madrugador were an obstacle that the Catalans did not attain to surpass. The leadership now is for the Seville, after the so many of Ezequiel Garay and Leo Messi to put the tables in Mestalla.

The dangerous tonic of the last days repeated again, and is that they were the ones of house those that advanced first. There had not been time to settle on the lawn, and a kickoff of corner was lethal. The centre brushed it Thomas Vermaelen and avoided a clear clean of Gerard Hammered, whose rebound remained died in the second stick so that it appeared Ezequiel Garay only for remachar.

Two minutes and everything went back to be against, and very of face for a rival that tried to sentence to the against. Gonçalo Guedes, Carlos Soler and Kevin Gameiro were a headache for the culés, because percutían to the back of Nélson Semedo and took always descolocados to the two head offices. There were several attempts with a lot of danger, until the men of Ernesto Valverde put the machine to work.

The exits in speed of the 'che' began to control , but in his populated defence, the Barcelona did not find the gaps. The possession elevated with the step of the minutes, but it was necessary to expect until the 21 so that contabilizara the first shot to door, work of Leo Messi that it did not attain to upset to Net with a too toneless attempt and even more centred.

But the rosarino warns once and no two, and in his following opportunity finish finding the equalised. Without doubting at least a moment, the '10' encaró to three contrintantes, threw a wall with Luis Suárez and to which saw hollow shot dry, raso and crusader to the left of the guardameta. His shot ajustadísimo, this time yes besó the network.

Trusted after the goal, the Barça began to shut to Valencia, attentive in the creation and the recovery, but without finding too much danger. They had cut him the wings to a challenging rival, but this was not sufficient in Mestalla to finish of desequilibrar the scales, was missing a last step to forward.

The guion no movio too much after the rest, and even the venues went back to be those that tested it first. Played of high speed, and the rebound that fell him to Denis Cheryshev could not it take advantage of by little, because his shot with the outside of the left foot left near but diverted of the goal defended by Marc-André Ter Stegen.

After the warning, again were the Catalans those that shut to the Valencians, adding speed to some attacks that did not finish of cuajar. The impenetrable 4-4-2 of Marcelino García Toral armoured to perfection to his, that besides removed the complexes and went back to show to the area.

There was another period of gone and come in which both could annotate, since presionaban with all his strengths the blanquinegros, but the culés rid with the tarpaulin that lately is them being missing backwards. All served of balloons to Coutinho and Messi, but not even his combinations opened spaces in a saga that finish drowning to the barcelonistas.

Not even they served the changes because they arrived very late, and the best occasions were two approaches of Michy Batshuayi and Coutinho that remained in less than what could be. The Belgian left to happen a balloon that lost and that it could have finished he same, and the carioca slept when it had it everything for 'fusilar' to Net. There was not time for more, and the trepidante Valencia-Barça went back to remain empatado.
