Barcelona ensured they did not fall further behind in the early stages of La Liga's title race as a late penalty from Robert Lewandowski secured a 2-1 win at Osasuna for the Spanish champions on Sunday.
Barca made a fast start with Frenkie de Jong hitting the post and Lewandowski firing wide from close range inside the first minute, but they were made to wait until first-half stoppage-time to open the scoring through Jules Kounde, who headed home from a corner.

The hosts came out strong after the break, however, and they made their pressure count with around 15 minutes left as Chimy Avila danced along the edge of the box before firing in from 20 yards.
Barca were not to be denied, however, as Lewandowski was pulled back in the area and picked himself up to convert his spot-kick to keep Barca within two points of leaders Real Madrid.
