Barcelona don’t want to be playing for second place but that’s the situation Xavi’s side find themselves in ahead of the final weeks of the season.
The Catalans are currently third but can regain second spot on Monday night against Real Sociedad after Alaves did Xavi’s men a favor on Friday night.
A 99th minute equaliser from Jon Guridi ensured Luis Garcia’s side drew 2-2 with Girona in a fun game at Mendizorroza.
Eric Garcia had opened the scoring with his fourth goal of the season before Alaves hit back. Yangel Herrera then put the visitors in front again before they were denied at the death.
