Barcelona vs. Atletico Madrid live updates: La Liga match latest score and goal alerts
Barcelona are level with Atletico Madrid after falling behind early in their La Liga match at Camp Nou.
Alex Baena's breakaway goal for the visitors, originally ruled offside but given by VAR, opened the scoring in the 19th minute. Barcelona responded quickly, equalising through Raphinha after a beautiful assist from Pedri.
Robert Lewandowski then had an opportunity to give the hosts the lead from the spot, but skied his penalty well over the bar.

Raphinha has time and space on the left side of the box and gets a shot away before a sliding challenge from a defender but he drags it just wide of the post. That was a golden chance.
The squad to face AtlĂŠtico Madrid
FC Barcelona have a huge game today at home to AtlĂŠtico Madrid. The Spotify Camp Nou is the venue for this clash between two of the form team in the competition, who are separated by just three points at the top of the table.
Hansi Flick is without all of Ter Stegen, FermĂÂn, Gavi, Araujo and Frenkie de Jong for this one, the Dutchman having gone down with a fever, and so the squad for the game will be as follows: Joan Garcia, SzczĂâ˘sny, Kochen, Balde, CubarsĂÂ, Christensen, Gerard MartĂÂn, Kounde, Eric, Jofre, Pedri, M. CasadĂÂł, Olmo, Bernal, Dro, Tommy, Ferran, Lewandowski, Lamine Yamal, Raphinha, Rashford and Roony.

Luis Garcia says he expected a stronger response from Barcelona after their 3-0 loss to Chelsea than they showed in the win vs. Alaves. (1:17)
There has been understandable consternation from those who are either of an Barcelona persuasion or who simply like and respect Hansi Flick when they saw the state of the German coach on Saturday. The Spanish champions had beaten AlavĂŠs 3-1 at home to go clear at the top of LaLiga despite the visitors taking the lead after 44 seconds.
Flick was back on the touchline of the club's beloved Camp Nou for only the second time since its reopening, following a long period of extensive renovations. And yet the Barça boss looked like a man who'd won the lottery jackpot, but lost the ticket: slumped in his seat long after the final whistle, looking like there were tears in his eyes, wearing a blank thousand-yard stare, with a metaphorical black cloud over his head. One of his players, Raphinha, was standing over him protectively, looking to all the world as if he were counselling his boss. And this after a victory.
