"Lamine Yamal scored a 40th minute penalty to give Hansi Flick's side the advantage going into the break, but Rayo hit back with a goal on 67 minutes from substitute Fran Perez to earn a draw at Estadio de Vallecas. The hosts, who finished eighth in the Spanish top flight last term, had a goal from Isi Palazon chalked off with just five minutes remaining,"
"while Flick had goalkeeper Joan Garcia to thank after the Barca stopper made a series of fine saves late on to keep the score level. It was an entertaining contest in Madrid, where just a few miles away the day prior, the Catalan club's great rivals Real Madrid came from behind to beat Mallorca to maintain their perfect start to the season and move to the top of the table."
Barcelona were held to a 1-1 draw by Rayo Vallecano in La Liga, marking the first dropped points of the season. Lamine Yamal converted a 40th-minute penalty before substitute Fran Perez levelled on 67 minutes. Rayo had an Isi Palazon goal ruled out with five minutes remaining, and Barcelona goalkeeper Joan Garcia made a series of late saves to preserve the draw. The result leaves Barcelona fourth after three games. Marcus Rashford, on a season-long loan from Manchester United, came on for the final half hour and still seeks his first goal for the club. Barcelona host Valencia on 13 September while Real Madrid travel to Real Sociedad.
