Barcelona made a good start to their return to the title fight in La Liga by beating Sevilla 4-1. The Catalans were in great form at the beginning of the season under Hansi Flick. However, losses or draws against Leganes, Atletico Madrid, Real Betis and Getafe had dimmed their hopes of the title.
Barca regained their old strength in the Sevilla match on Sunday night. Barca took a 1-0 lead early in the match with Lewandowski's goal. However, a minute later, Vargas equalized for Sevilla. But Barca secured a big victory by scoring three goals in the second half.
Young midfielder Fermin Lopez gave Barca a 2-1 lead in the 46th minute. Then, Rafinha made it 3-1 in the 55th minute. Finally, in the 89th minute, Erqui García secured Barca's big win.
With this victory, Barcelona's points stand at 48 after 23 matches, while Atletico Madrid have 49 and Real Madrid have 50 points. After the draws between Real and Atletico Madrid, Barca are back in the title race.
Now, the title race will be even more intense in just one match, and the rival teams will be under even more pressure.
