Barcelona suffer shock defeat against Rayo Vallecano in La Liga
Rayo Vallecano forward Alvaro Garcia netted an early goal to give his side a surprise 1-0 win against Barcelona at the Camp Nou on Sunday, moving Real Madrid another step closer to sealing their 35th La Liga title. Garcia sealed the game for the visitors when he opened the scoring in the seventh minute, receiving the ball inside the box and rifling it past goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen to a wave of whistles at the Camp Nou. Barcelona failed to convert a number of golden chances despite going agonisingly close to an equaliser with the referee playing 14 minutes of stoppage time at the end of the second half. "These mistakes cannot be repeated and they have happened to us again. They are very good opportunities that we let pass us by," Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez told reporters. "I leave angry, disappointed, because today was ... a repeat of what happened against Eintracht (Frankfurt), as well as Cadiz. We lacked a lot of effectiveness."
