Celta Vigo vs Barcelona, La Liga: Final Score 2-2, Barça attack well, defend horribly, drop two big points on the road

Barcelona have wasted a big opportunity to keep pressure on La Liga leaders Real Madrid and could see the title race practically end this weekend thanks to a 2-2 draw away to Celta Vigo on Saturday. The Blaugrana were pretty good for most of the match, but defensive mistakes cost them two big points on the road and maybe the whole season.

FIRST HALF

Barça played a very good first half, dominating possession and finding ways to attack a deep block by the home team with constant movement in the final third: full-backs were overlapping, midfielders were making run after run, and Lionel Messi was trying to find everybody with beautiful pass after beautiful pass.
