Hello, sports lovers, the weekend was filled with exciting matches. Football fans were nothing short but happy for the return of all domestic leagues since the international break.

However, I was looking out for a particular match this weekend, FC Barcelona vs Valencia. It's already been known that Barca is suffering from huge debt and their form on the pitch.

Barcelona received their visitors at the camp nou. Barcelona starting was looking good as Jordi Alba who was out for some weeks was part of the starting eleven and for the first time in the season, Aguero made the bench list.

The match came to life, Valencia started their attack. Barcelona defenders tried to ease the pressure but unfortunately, Jordi Alba was unable to clear the ball out of the defence. Jose Gaya from Valencia claimed the ball and made a shot outside the box. Ter Stegen was unable to save it as the ball entered the net. Just 5 minutes played Valencia had a one-goal lead against Barca.

To my surprise, Barcelona didn't back down. They brought the pressure to the Valencia defence. Memphis Depay set in a cross but was denied by Valencia defence, Ansu Fati also tried to dribble his way to get a goal but still, the defence won't budge.

Memphis Depay started another attack, playing a 1-2 with Ansu Fati. Ansu beat the Valencia goalkeeper with a shot outside the box to level things up at just 13mins played in the game. The crowd went wild at what a goal from Ansu Fati.

Barcelona dominated the game with more possession. Valencia made some attacks but was not able to get a goal. Barca still put more pressure on their attack.

Jordi Alba sent in a low cross to Ansu, but he was fouled by Jose Gaya in the box, the referee gave a penalty and Memphis was ready to take it. Memphis slams a shot into the net with the keeper unable to move, Barcelona taking the lead into halftime.

The second quarter of the game started, Valencia wasn't ready to settle for that scoreline as they attempted to score but were denied by Barca's goalkeeper, chances were made by both sides but none were able to get a goal.

85 minutes played already, Dest for Barcelona played in a low cross the ball was received by Coutinho who was a sub in to replace Ansu Fati, the Brazilian with his right foot played a low ball into the net to give Barcelona a two-goal lead ahead of Valencia, Coutinho scoring his first goal for the season after coming back from a long term injury.

Aguero also made his debut at 87minutes, he wasn't giving much playing time as advised for the medical team, because he was still recovering, hoping we can see him play on Wednesday in the Champions League match.

So the match came to an end, Barcelona coming back from behind to win and take all three points was good for the club. Hoping they win their Champions League match against Dynamo Kyiv this Wednesday. So guys this is all for now, have a wonderful week.
