Barcelona Completes Comeback Against Real Oviedo with 3-1 Victory

Posted on September 26, 2025

Barcelona secured a 3-1 comeback win over Real Oviedo on September 25, 2025, demonstrating resilience after a shaky first half. The victory keeps Barcelona within striking distance of La Liga leaders Real Madrid, trailing by just two points.

The match began with Real Oviedo applying early pressure, creating several opportunities that were thwarted by Barcelona's defense. However, it was Oviedo who struck first in the 33rd minute when Alberto Reina capitalized on a mistake by Barcelona goalkeeper Joan García, who misplayed a long ball. Reina took advantage, sending a remarkable looping shot into an empty net from distance, putting the hosts ahead.

Following the halftime break, Barcelona came out with renewed vigor, equalizing in the 56th minute when Eric García tapped in a rebound after Ferran Torres' shot was saved. As Barcelona continued to push for the lead, Lewandowski, who had been substituted in, made an immediate impact by scoring a well-placed header in the 70th minute, connecting with a cross from Frenkie de Jong.

Ronald Araújo sealed the victory for Barcelona in the 88th minute, heading in from a corner taken by Marcus Rashford. The win was crucial for Barcelona, who had struggled in their previous away matches against Oviedo. The team finished the match with an impressive 2.14 expected goals from 22 attempts, with 10 shots on target.

Lewandowski's contribution in this match marked another milestone, as he scored against 21 of the 25 different opponents he's faced in La Liga. This victory not only boosts Barcelona's morale but also paves the way for their upcoming challenges in the league as they aim to reclaim their title.
