Atlético Madrid, on the other hand, remains third with 56 points from 28 matches.

The match started in Atlético’s favor, with Julián Álvarez breaking the deadlock right before halftime after an excellent counterattack from Antoine Griezmann and Giuliano Simeone.

The home team extended their lead in the 70th minute when Alexander Sørloth finished from close range after a well-timed pass from Conor Gallagher.

Barcelona, however, wasted no time in mounting their response.

Robert Lewandowski capitalized on a precise cross from Iñigo Martínez to reduce the deficit.

Shortly after, Ferran Torres delivered a brilliant header off Raphinha’s assist to level the score.
