After three months of hell, there is finally a reason to smile for Barcelona’s youth affiliate. Barça B had been on an awful run of results that made them a real part of the relegation battle in the Third Division, and they desperately need a victory.
But a trip to sixth-place Alcoyano wasn’t exactly very encouraging for a team low on confidence, and all signs pointed to another bad result and one more week of pessimism. But Barça B showed their strength, playing very well on the road against one of the best teams in the division and showing huge character to win 3-2 thanks to a late goal by Ferran Jutglà.
