Even though it wasn’t a particularly pretty performance from Barcelona, they were able to pull off the victory and earn all three points.
Pedri scored the game-winning goal in the 17th minute, and it was an easy one after Nunez fumbled a clearance away from goal. This goal was the difference between the two teams. Celta Vigo made an effort to respond and had some successful stretches in both halves of the game, but they were unable to keep possession of the ball for long enough to get into a rhythm.
After securing the victory, the Blaugrana have moved into first place in the La Liga standings, surpassing their rivals Real Madrid in the process.
Before heading to the Santiago Bernabeu to take on Carlo Ancelotti’s Madrid in the much anticipated El Clasico, they will play Inter Milan at home in the Champions League, where they will hope to get revenge for their 1-0 loss to the Italian heavyweights last week. After that, they will play Madrid in the much anticipated El Clasico.
Celta Vigo, on the other hand, is currently in 11th place on the log; their attention will be directed toward Real Sociedad, who is in sixth place.
