Rayo Vallecano with Barcelona face each other on Saturday, november 25, 2023 at 13:00, the match is in Estadio de Vallecas of Madrid, This great game It's one more meeting La Liga.

Commentaries

It ends level at the Vallecas, as a mountain of pressure from Barcelona finally pays off! The Blaugrana laid siege to Rayo Vallecano's box at times in that second half, with Cancelo, Torres, Pedri and Martinez all putting efforts over or into the gloves of Dimitrievski. Barca cranked up that pressure further in the final 15 minutes though, with Raphinha rattling the post before a pinpoint Balde cross was accidentally volleyed into his own net by Lejeune! Back level, the visitors had further half-chances to find a winner, but were unsuccessful, while the Rayito saw a late chance of their own go begging after Ciss fired wide. A draw isn't an ideal result for either team, but on the balance of play was arguably the fairest result. Vallecano move up two places into eighth, though could drop to as low as 11th if the sides below them all win on matchday 14. Barca, meanwhile, miss the chance to go second in the table, and could well be overtaken themselves if Atletico Madrid can win their game in hand.

90'

De Jong and Balliu collide after the Barca midfielder has released a pass, but the clash sees De Jong pick up a somewhat harsh booking!

90'

Felix goes down look to win a free-kick on halfway, but the decision goes the other way and the Portuguese forward is shown a yellow card of his own!

90'

Cancelo flicks the ball past Falcao and looks to run onto it, but is taken out late by the striker in a challenge that wouldn't even be legal on a rugby field! The substitute goes into the book, as the clock ticks over into minute 90.

82' GOOOOAAAALLL!!!! Finally a breakthrough for the Blaugrana!!! Balde charges down the left to meet Martinez's long pass, and volleys the ball back into the box. Lewandowski is the target and looks to have got there first, but it's actually a touch from Lejeune that takes the ball past Dimitrievski and into the top corner! There's a big question mark over Lewandowski, who looked to be offside from the initial ball forward, but as he didn't actually touch it, the goal stands and it's 1-1 at the Vallecas!

78'

Lopez's sweetly-struck volley is still the difference between these two sides, and he comes off to a hero's applause as he's replaced late on by Andrei Ratiu.

75'

Pathe Ciss will also see out the game for the hosts, replacing Mumin in a change that could see some switches in the back-line.

75'

The Rayito make an alteration up front, with Radamel Falcao replacing Camello in the hope of adding to their slender 1-0 advantage.

75'

Raphinha is also brought off the bench for the final stages, replacing Yamal in a like-for-like switch on the right flank.

75'

Both sides make further changes with just 15 minutes left on the clock, as La Masia product Fermin Lopez enters the fray for Barca in place of Pedri.

70'

Lopez is all over De Jong as the Barcelona midfielder makes a run from deep, somehow dragging the Dutchman down and making a sliding tackle in the same movement that gifts the visitors a free-kick on the edge of the box! The Vallecano goalscorer also goes into the book for his troubles.

68'

De Frutos also comes off, and former Manchester United striker Bebe, who is loving scoring late goals this season, will replace him for the final 20 or so minutes of this contest.

68'

Rayo Vallecano make their first changes of the match, with Trejo replaced up front by Kike Perez, who is on loan from city rivals Real Madrid.

64'

Pedri dribbles his way through the defence down that right-hand side, but is dragged to ground by Espino racing back in cover. The left-back is shown the yellow card, and it's another chance for Barca to get the ball into the box.

55'

Torres also comes off having recently missed that headed effort, and on-loan Atletico Madrid forward Joao Felix will take his place in the front three.

55'

Having been booked early in the second half, Romeu comes off in Barca's first change, and İlkay Gundogan's introduction will likely see De Jong drop to the base of their midfield three.

51'

A well-worked Barcelona attack is cut out brilliantly by Espino, who tees up De Frutos to set off on the counter-attack. He's stopped in his tracks though by Romeu barging him to ground off the ball, and the Blaugrana midfielder picks up a textbook yellow card.

39'

GOOOOAAAAAALLL!!!! The hosts open the scoring with an absolute belter!!! Lopez crosses the free-kick into the box, and after an initial headed clearance, Trejo's effort on the rebound is blocked. The ball bounces back out to Lopez, who drills a fantastic half-volley of his own towards goal, skimming over the top of the grass and arrowing right into the bottom corner! A scrambling Pena can't get there, as Rayo go 1-0 up thanks to the sweetest shot that Lopez will ever hit in his life!

31'

Pedri loses out to Lopez on halfway but leaves a foot in and catches the Rayo midfielder. He's shown the first yellow card of the game for the challenge, as both sides continue to cancel each other out so far.
