The fifth week in La Liga does not change the hierarchies in the Spanish football elite, as Barcelona responds in the same way and brings Real Madrid back 3 points behind: five wins in five games for the blaugrana, who beat Levante 4-2 after fifty minutes played at a very high level. Espart opens the match in the 4th minute, then comes the top scorer Yamal: goal from the action in the 18th minute and from the penalty in the 47th minute. Ivan Romero (78') and Brugue (88') wake up the Valencians, but Adeyemi (92') closes the match.
Real Madrid calls and Barcelona responds, albeit with some thrilling moments and two serious defensive errors. The Blaugrana score four goals against Levante, who are defeated 4-2, and return to +3: only in the 2011/12 season (22 goals) had Barcelona scored more than the current 21 goals in the first five weeks.
From the start, in the “Ciutat de Valencia” it is a monologue of the blaugrana and the goal comes as a natural consequence: Fermin and Raphinha combine, Espart gets into action and scores his first goal in La Liga and with Barcelona. The young defender only needed 12 appearances, four minutes in this match and the flow of the game continued without problems for Flick. The only alarm moment is created by the former Lazio player, Ratkov, approaching the equalizer, but in the 18th minute the score becomes 2-0: Raphinha serves Yamal, who enters from behind and doubles the advantage.
The rest of the match is under the full control of Barcelona, who are not shaken by the break or the short delay in the resumption of play in the second half, due to a fan's health concern. The restart immediately brings a penalty, won and converted by Yamal: six goals in five matches, he is the top scorer together with Raphinha and the Mbappé-Camello duo. The Blaugrana slow down, rotate and somewhat let the game go, while Levante take advantage in the 78th minute: a carelessness in the defense gives Ivan Romero the opportunity to score and wake up the home team.
Thus begins another match, with Barcelona scared and supported by the red and blue fans. Brugge makes them dream with a goal for 3-2 in the 88th minute, after an easy mark by Bernal and Cubarsi. Fear begins to spread to Barcelona, but Adeyemi calms everyone down in extra time: a brilliant individual action, a spectacular goal and 4-2 in the 92nd minute. Levante (5 points) leaves amidst applause, but the victory belongs to Barcelona: 15 points out of a possible 15, five wins in five games and +3 over Mourinho and Real Madrid.
