Defeated by Atlético Madrid (2-2) , FC Barcelona recorded a second straight draw in La Liga and lost two new precious points in the title race. Despite the 700th career goal of Lionel Messi, the Blaugranas fell on tough Colchoneros who scored twice on two penalties from Saul Niguez (19th, 62nd). A bad result that could lead Real to take 4 points ahead if successful against Getafe on Thursday.
