Barcelona are heading for a first La Liga defeat of the season, but they have now got a goal back against Sevilla at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan.
Ronald Araujo was one of two changes made from the midweek defeat to Paris Saint-Germain, and he was at the heart of the incident that allowed Sevilla to score the opener. He was adjudged to have fouled Isaac Romero inside the penalty, with the decision being confirmed after a VAR check. That allowed Alexis Sanchez to step up from 12 yards, and he netted against his former club.
After that moment, Sevilla had a number of chances to score again, with most of them falling to Isaac Romero. He squandered two big ones, but it was third time lucky as he made it 2-0 to the home side on 37 minutes.
Barcelona have a knack for comebacks under Hansi Flick, and right before half time, one has possibly been set up as Marcus Rashford has volleyed home for his first La Liga goal.

It’s a fantastic finish from Rashford, and it has set up the second half very nicely in this one. Can Barcelona continue the comeback?
