7M - Barcelona Return to La Liga Summit with 3-0 Win Over Real Oviedo
Posted Monday, January 26, 2026 by 7M Sport
Barcelona reclaimed top spot in La Liga with a commanding 3-0 victory over bottom-placed Real Oviedo at a rain-soaked Camp Nou, moving to 52 points—just ahead of Real Madrid (51) and well clear of third-place Atletico Madrid (44).

The hosts struggled to break down a determined Oviedo side until the 52nd minute, when a defensive error opened the door. Oviedo's David Carmo hesitated on a clearance under pressure from Lamine Yamal, allowing the ball to deflect into Dani Olmo's path. The midfielder calmly finished low into the corner for the opener.
Five minutes later, Oviedo gifted another goal: defender David Costas underhit a back-pass, and Raphinha seized the chance, intercepting the pass and chipping goalkeeper Aarón Escandell to make it 2-0.
Lamine Yamal sealed the win in spectacular fashion in the 73rd minute. Meeting Dani Olmo's precise cross at the far post, the 17-year-old Spanish winger launched into a scissor-kick volley that flew into the right side of the net, capping a clinical performance built on Oviedo's defensive lapses.
