Xavi’s team faced a tricky test in the Europa League on Thursday, needing to win at Galatasaray, in a stadium well-known for it’s intimidating atmosphere, to progress to the quarter-finals.
Barca’s task was made even harder when Marcao headed the hosts in front after just 28 minutes. The goal had the home fans bouncing and left Barca needing to find a comeback to see off the challenge of the Turkish side.
And that’s exactly what they did. Barca showed great composure and character, kept playing and managed to pull level less than 10 minutes later with a brilliant goal from midfielder Pedri.
