It might well have been the late, late show from Barca, but had any number of earlier chances gone in, the Catalans would’ve been out of sight well before full-time.
The result isn’t to be sniffed at either. Elche were La Liga’s form team at home over the last half dozen games.
The comeback victory keeps the wagon rolling, keeps confidence high and keeps Barca’s destiny very much in their own hands.
At this stage of the season, that point can’t be understated.
When Elche took the lead just before half-time, if it wasn’t exactly against the run of play, it wasn’t too far from it.
