European round-up: Barcelona lose unbeaten record after 5-4 Levante defeat


Barcelona’s hopes of an unbeaten La Liga campaign were ended in their penultimate game as they lost 5-4 at Levante. The champions had gone 36 games unbeaten but trailed 5-1 after 56 minutes and their dramatic fightback came up short. Coutinho pulled one back seven minutes before the break with a deflected effort from the edge of the area but Levante started the second half in style. Bardhi then added his second to make it 5-1, curling the ball into the far-left corner from Roger’s pass. Coutinho reduced the deficit three minutes later from close range and completed his first Barça hat-trick with 26 minutes left with another deflected effort from range.
