Osasuna 1 - 2 Barcelona : Lewandowski late penalty gives Barcelona 2-1 win at Osasuna
Robert Lewandowski's late penalty earned Barcelona a hard-fought 2-1 win at Osasuna on Sunday as the defending LaLiga champions secured their third consecutive victory after starting the season with a goalless draw at Getafe.
Barcelona took the lead with a Jules Koundé header from a corner by Ilkay Gundogan in added-time before the break, but Chimy Ávila equalised in the 76th minute by unleashing an unstoppable curling shot from the edge of the box which flew into the back of the net off the right post.
But five minutes later, right after new-recruits João Cancelo and João Félix came off the bench to make their debuts, Barca were awarded a penalty when Alejandro Catena grabbed Lewandowski's right arm inside the box.
The defender was shown a red card for the last-man foul and the Polish striker slotted home the spot-kick with a tidy finish to the goalkeeper's left.
