16 Barcelona had started off on the right track against Valencia, after Fermin Lopez gave them the lead, but the reaction is not what Xavi Hernandez was hoping for 40 minutes into the first game after he announced he would be staying.
After Lopez and Duro traded goals, featuring a critical mistake from Marc-Andre ter Stegen, it was Ronald Araujo again that was at fault for the second time in as many weeks, after he brought down Peter Federico in the box.
A simple ball in behind was not read by any of the Barcelona defenders, and as Peter raced in behind, Araujo nearly caught him, but did catch his leg as he slid in for a last-ditch challenge. Pepelu duly stepped up and scored against the club that last week was linked with a move for him, and celebrated by doing the ‘call me’ sign. Perhaps even to his opponents.
2-1 Valencia.
