LaLiga: Barcelona Win At Valencia In 4-2 Thriller

By Chimezie Nebolisa

Robert Lewandowski scored a second-half hat-trick to power Barcelona to an entertaining 4-2 win over 10-man Valencia on Monday in LaLiga.

The champions' victory denies leaders Real Madrid the chance to take the crown by simply beating Cadiz next Saturday.

Los Blancos are 11 points clear with five matches remaining.

Fermin Lopez sent Barcelona ahead before Hugo Duro levelled and Pepelu netted from the spot to turn the game round.

Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili was sent off late in the first half for handball and Lewandowski equalised soon after the break before adding another two late on.
