With a goal from Raphinha, Barcelona beats Real Sociedad and takes second place in Espanyol

This Monday, in the 35th round of the Spanish Championship, Barcelona hosted Real Sociedad at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium and won 2-0. The goals were scored by Lamine Yamale Raphinha.

With the positive result, Xavi’s team reached 76 points and took second place in the competition, as Girona drew against Alavés and reached 75 in third place. It is worth remembering that second place in La Liga entitles you to a place in the Spanish Super Cup. Real Sociedad had the same 54 and fell to seventh place after Betis overcame Almería and reached 55.

Finally, Barça returns to the pitch this Thursday, against already relegated Almería. The ball rolls at 4:30 pm (Brasília time), at the Power Horse Stadium. On the Real Sociedad side, the team will face Valencia on the same day. The match takes place at 5pm (Brasília time), at the Reale Arena.

Oh goal

The scoring was opened in the 40th minute of the first half, by young Lamine Yamal. The boy received a great pass from Gundogan inside the area and finished into the back of the net.

In stoppage time, Brazilian striker Raphinha took advantage of the opportunity and, with a penalty, closed the score.
