The victory came as a much-needed boost ahead of their upcoming Champions League clash with Paris Saint-Germain.
Barcelona’s 3-1 victory over Espanyol was overshadowed by a controversial VAR decision that disallowed a Ferran Torres goal, sparking fresh debate over officiating standards in La Liga.
Barcelona faced further refereeing drama during Saturday’s Catalan Derby after Ferran Torres was denied a hattrick by a disputed VAR intervention.
While leading 2-0, Torres netted a third, but officials ruled Eric Garcia offside in the buildup. The released tactical image caused widespread confusion among supporters, especially following the club’s midweek frustrations.
Despite the setback, Lamine Yamal’s late strike secured a 3-1 win.
The decision arrives amidst heightened tensions, with Real Madrid TV recently escalating the war of words by claiming, “This is the Negreira League.”
Hansi Flick’s side remained resilient despite a nervy second half following Espanyol’s consolation goal.

Liverpool supporters intensified their campaign against rising costs during Saturday’s match with Fulham, deploying banners and vocal chants to condemn Fenway Sports Group’s plan to increase prices over the next three seasons.
Liverpool fans staged a visible and vocal protest at Anfield during their Premier League fixture against Fulham.
A prominent banner on the Kop declared, “No to ticket price increases,” as supporters voiced their anger through chants directed at the club’s hierarchy.
The demonstration follows the club’s recent decision to raise ticket costs in line with inflation for the next three years, sparking a massive backlash.
Fan groups, including Spirit of Shankly and Spion Kop 1906, have warned that this is only the beginning of coordinated actions.

“We feel we have been left with no other option, year on year the rising costs are pricing more fans out of football.”

New Tottenham Hotspur manager Roberto De Zerbi has ignited hope among supporters by declaring his long-term ambition to restore the club to the Premier League’s summit despite their recent drop into the relegation zone.
Roberto De Zerbi has pledged to bring ambition back to Tottenham following the club’s slide into the bottom three.
Taking over a side reeling from a 3-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest, the Italian tactician is tasked with surviving a dire injury crisis.
“In my plan for sure there is the idea to stay for a long time… to put Tottenham to stay in the first position,” De Zerbi stated.
The manager’s arrival marks a shift from the pragmatic approach of predecessor Thomas Frank.
While the squad faces significant absences on the right flank, De Zerbi’s focus remains on high-level competitiveness and trophy hunting.
Addressing the club’s potential, he noted the goal is “to put Tottenham to stay in the first position in the Premier League because there are all parts to reach that level.”
Guardiola playfully awaits Silva’s decision.
Pep Guardiola has stated that Manchester City must win all their remaining games to have any hope of winning the Premier League title. City, currently chasing Arsenal, resume their league campaign against Chelsea. Guardiola acknowledged that dropped points earlier in the season have put them in a position where they cannot afford any more slip-ups. Despite recent victories in the Carabao Cup and FA Cup, Guardiola emphasized the need to focus on winning each individual match, regardless of Arsenal’s results.
