Barcelona continued their unconvincing performance in La Liga in recent weeks, after drawing 1-1 away at Getafe in a match from the 20th round of the championship.
The match started well for the Catalans, who took the lead in the score in the 9th minute with a goal from defender Jules Cunde. The hosts responded quickly and equalized through Mauro Arambari in the 34th minute. Until the end, Hansi Flick's team was unable to take advantage of their game advantage and score another goal.
Thus, Barcelona was unable to take advantage of Atletico Madrid's mistake and significantly shorten the distance to the top. The Catalans occupy third place in the standings with 39 points, five less than Atleti. Second-placed Real Madrid have 43 points and a game in hand.
For Barca, this was their fourth consecutive winless match in La Liga, with the Catalans' last win in the league coming on December 3. Getafe are 16th in the standings with 20 points. | BGNES
