To defeat Celta de Vigo away from home, FC Barcelona must once more rely on heroics in the last moments. Robert Lewandowski’s late penalty handed the Catalans a 2-1 lead.
This has been typical for Barcelona this season, as they have primarily relied on goals in the final ten minutes of regulation in addition to extra time to win points.
Barcelona has been able to salvage points in nine league games by scoring goals after the 80th minute.
This indicates that the squad has won more than a third of its points as a result of late goals; if not for those late heroics, Barcelona would now be in ninth place.
Additionally, goals scored 90 minutes or later have helped them win five games and earn points. This season, goals scored after the 89th minute have accounted for over a quarter of the team’s total points.
