Spanish champions Barcelona have made a flying start to their title defence, winning all five of their opening matches under head coach Hansi Flick.

On September 13, Barcelona secured a hard-fought 4-2 victory away at Levante in a game that looked destined to become another comfortable win for the Catalan giants until the closing stages.

Espart opened the scoring as early as the fifth minute before teenage sensation Lamine Yamal took centre stage. The Barcelona forward struck twice to put the visitors firmly in control and seemingly on course for another emphatic victory.

But Levante refused to surrender. Romero and Bruke found the net to bring the hosts back into the contest and suddenly turn what had looked like a routine Barcelona victory into a genuine battle.

With the home side pushing for an equaliser, Adeyemi finally settled the contest in stoppage time, scoring Barcelona's fourth goal and ending any remaining doubt about the result.
