Villarreal vs Barcelona, La Liga: Final Score 4-4, Messi, Suárez save giant point in terrible night for Barça defense

Barcelona’s 17-game, five-month long unbeaten streak in La Liga was 13 minutes away from ending when Villarreal led 4-2 in the 80th minute, but the defending champions somehow found a way to come back and earn an unbelievable point on a wild 4-4 draw. Barça’s defense had their worst night in a long, long time, but Lionel Messi and Luis Suárez stepped up late and saved the rest of the team to give Barça en eight-point lead at the top of the table before the giant game against Atlético Madrid at the weekend.
