However, Los Che were carved open by an exquisite pass from Sergio Busquets on the quarter-hour, which Raphinha reached ahead of Giorgi Mamardashvili to head in his fifth La Liga goal of the season.<\/p>\n<p>Hugo Guillam\u00f3n handled Jules Kound\u00e9&#8217;s strike to concede a penalty. Torres won the wrangle with Fati to take it, but hit an atrocious spot-kick that clipped the post on its way out. The hosts were then reduced to 10 men when Ara\u00fajo pulled down Hugo Duro following a calamitous header from Kound\u00e9.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">\u23f1\ufe0f 55&#8242; Ferran Torres misses a penalty \u274c<br \/>\n\u23f1\ufe0f 59&#8242; Ronald Araujo is sent off ?<\/p>\n<p>Not a good few minutes for Barcelona ? <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/75lWzVCvrW\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/75lWzVCvrW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 LiveScore (@livescore) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/livescore\/status\/1632419598568923138?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">March 5, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\nEven so, the Barcelona backline was solid until the end to get the 10th win in 12 home La Liga matches this term, earning a 10-point buffer atop the table for now.
