Barcelona 4-3 Celta Vigo: Raphinha brace caps stunning comeback victory

Barcelona completed a dramatic 4-3 comeback win over Celta Vigo at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, with Raphinha netting twice, including the decisive goal deep into stoppage time.
Ferran Torres opened the scoring with a brilliant solo effort, but Celta responded swiftly through Borja Iglesias, who capitalised on a missed cross by Wojciech Szczesny.
Iglesias added two more after the break to complete his hat-trick, putting Celta 3-1 ahead.
Barcelona responded with urgency. Dani Olmo pulled one back to make it 3-2, before Raphinha levelled the match.
The Brazilian winger then struck again in the eighth minute of added time to secure all three points.
The result keeps Barcelona firmly in the race for La Liga’s top spots, while Celta are left ruing what could have been a strong showing.
