FC Barcelona beat Celta Vigo 1-0 in a La Liga encounter on Wednesday, April 22, 2026, at Camp Nou in Barcelona.
Lamine Yamal scored Barcelona's only goal in the 40th minute from a self-earned penalty after dribbling past Celta Vigo's Yoel Lago and being fouled; no assist was credited. Barcelona dominated the first half but adopted a defensive approach in the second half to hold on for the 1-0 victory against a Celta side that created late opportunities.
The result leaves Barcelona in first place in the La Liga standings with 82 points after 32 matches and a goal difference of +55. It extended their lead over Real Madrid to nine points as they push for the championship. Celta Vigo sit seventh with 44 points after failing to find an equalizer despite second-half pressure.
Barcelona will play Getafe in La Liga next on Saturday, April 25, 2026. The away fixture at Estadio Coliseum comes as the league leaders look to extend their unbeaten run.
