Barcelona celebrate Levante winGetty

Barcelona player ratings vs Levante: Barca win it at the death! Hansi Flick's side come from 2-0 down to beat Levante as own goal from Lamine Yamal cross completes incredible comeback after Pedri and Ferran Torres strikes

Second-half goals from Pedri and Ferran Torres helped Barcelona fight back from two goals down to win 3-2 against Levante in La Liga on Saturday.

The reigning champions found themselves deservedly behind thanks to a strike from Ivan Romero and a penalty from Jose Luis Morales, with the hosts unlucky not to score more.

However Barcelona were quick out of the blocks in the second half, with a wonderful long-range strike from Pedri and a close-range finish from Torres levelling the score.

And in the dying embers of the game, Levante defender Unai Elgezabal headed into his own net following a teasing Lamine Yamal cross as Barcelona completed a dramatic comeback.

    Goalkeeper & Defence

    Joan Garcia (6/10):

    The shot-stopper could do nothing to stop either goal going in. He did make a couple of good saves, though, to prevent Levante from scoring more.

    Eric Garcia (4/10):

    He and his fellow defenders started well, catching Levante offside a few times, but their solidity quickly crumbled thereafter.

    Ronald Araujo (4/10):

    Like Garcia, Araujo and the Barcelona offside trap was in fine form early on, but Levante soon got the better of it and were very unlucky not to score more than two.

    Pau Cubarsi (4/10):

    The centre-back, with his arms behind his back, was not aggressive enough as Romero dribbled past him to fire the hosts in front after 15 minutes.

    Alejandro Balde (4/10):

    A difficult evening for the left-back. Not long after receiving a yellow card, the 21-year-old conceded the penalty for Levante's second after the ball struck his wrist inside the box.

    Midfield

    Pedri (8/10):

    Comfortably Barcelona's best player. He was unlucky not to record an assist, when Torres hit the crossbar from his delightful through ball, before his long-range drive kick-started the comeback.

    Marc Casado (4/10):

    Returning to Barcelona's midfield, he was easily dribbled past in the build up to Levante's opener before being replaced at half time.

    Attack

    Lamine Yamal (7/10):

    He looked a threat every time he was able to cut inside onto his left foot, with his late cross leading to Barcelona's last-gasp winner.

    Raphinha (7/10):

    The Brazil international headed wide from a good first-half chance. He grew into the game, though, curling in a great corner which led to Barcelona's equaliser.

    Marcus Rashford (4/10):

    The forward looked sharp early on, as he and Balde combined well down the left-hand side, but his influence soon waned. He was substituted during the half-time break.

    Ferran Torres (7/10):

    The former Manchester City man should have scored in the first half but hit the crossbar. However he made amends after the break, latching onto Raphinha's corner for the equaliser.

    Subs & Manager

    Jules Kounde (6/10):

    He had the chance to win it for Barcelona before Elgezabal's own goal, but he fired his shot just wide of the far post.

    Andreas Christensen (6/10):

    The defender was introduced late in the second half as Barcelona went in search of a winner. He looked assured, thus giving manager Hansi Flick plenty to think about moving forward.

    Gavi (6/10):

    He came off the bench for the second half and provided Barcelona with more impetus going forward. A solid display from the 21-year-old.

    Dani Olmo (6/10):

    Like Gavi he injected some much-needed energy into Barcelona's play in the second half. A good substitution by Flick and a good outing from Olmo.

    Robert Lewandowski (5/10):

    The striker received little service following his introduction off the bench. He was convinced he should have earned his side a second-half penalty, but the Poland star's appeals were waved away.

    Hansi Flick (5/10):

    Perhaps the decision to start Casado was the wrong one in the end. However the German got his half-time team talk spot on as Barcelona scored two quick-fire goals after the break.
