Barcelona were stunned 2-1 in the first leg of their Copa del Rey round-of-16 showdown against Levante, who ran out victors over a much-changed Blaugrana team in Valencia.
Erick Cabaco and Borja Mayoral—on loan from Barca's rivals Real Madrid—put the hosts two goals up after only 18 minutes. Philippe Coutinho scored from the penalty spot late onto snatch what could prove an important away goal.
Ernesto Valverde will shoulder a portion of the blame for fielding an XI featuring only a handful of regulars. Youngsters Carles Alena, 21, Juan Brandariz, 19, and Juan Miranda, 18, all started.
