Barcelona stun Levante with late comeback as Flick’s men turn 2-0 deficit into 3-2 victory

Barcelona produced a thrilling turnaround in Valencia, coming from two goals down to claim a dramatic 3-2 win over Levante and maintain their perfect start to the La Liga season.

Hansi Flick’s side endured a nightmare first half, conceding to Iván Romero’s opener before José Luis Morales doubled the hosts’ lead from the penalty spot. Levante could have inflicted further damage before the interval, with the champions struggling to impose themselves defensively.

The response after the break was immediate and emphatic. Pedri, who had looked subdued in the opening stages, ignited the fightback with a stunning strike from outside the box. Moments later, Ferran Torres, who continues to grow in confidence under Flick, levelled the score with a poacher’s finish.

The decisive blow arrived in stoppage time when a dangerous cross from Lamine Yamal was deflected into the net for an own goal, sparking wild celebrations among the traveling supporters.

The victory makes it two wins from two for Barcelona in their title defense, showcasing resilience reminiscent of their best under Pep Guardiola and Luis Enrique. Flick, still in the early days of his tenure, will take encouragement from the character shown, even if the defensive lapses remain a concern.

Pedri’s brilliance, Torres’ persistence, and Yamal’s fearless energy proved decisive — a reminder that this young Barcelona side, though flawed, possesses the grit to overcome adversity.
