    Barcelona could do with a quiet five-or-so minutes until the break.

    The La Liga leaders have lost their concentration in recent moments and are offering some encourage to the home side.

    It could so easily have been a different game if Levante had taken either of the chances that fell to Petar Ratkov and Roger Brugué earlier on.

    Even though Barcelona are threatening in attack, they do look slightly vulnerable at the back.

    That is eight goals and three assists in six games across all competitions this season.

    He is the heartbeat of this Barcelona side.

    What about that for a counter-attack!

    Barcelona work the ball from back to front in a matter of seconds before Raphinha rounds Matthew Ryan and cuts it back for Lamine Yamal to smash home from close range.

    The champions are putting on a fine display in Valencia!
