After a 4-0 Copa del Rey thrashing by Atletico Madrid and a 2-1 La Liga defeat to Girona, Barcelona sits two points behind Real Madrid with 14 games left. Flick announced Pedri, sidelined since late January with a hamstring injury, could return as early as Sunday before the February 22 clash with Levante; Marcus Rashford and Gavi are also nearing comebacks.

The miss contributed to Girona's late winner, handing Real Madrid the La Liga lead, while Raphinha continues his strong form without relying on spot-kicks.

Key Takeaway

Raphinha has nailed every penalty since 2019, yet young Lamine Yamal stepped up for Barcelona's key spot-kick against Girona—and hit the post.
