Barcelona remain unbeaten at the top of La Liga after being held to an entertaining draw by Celta Vigo.<\/p>\n

Iago Aspas put Celta ahead after Marc-Andre ter Stegen parried Maxi Gomez’s shot, but Barca levelled moments later as Lionel Messi converted Paulinho’s pass for his 17th goal this season.<\/p>\n

Luis Suarez had a goal harshly ruled out for offside and Messi hit a post.<\/p>\n

Suarez put Barca ahead from Jordi Alba’s cross after a Messi pass, but Gomez equalised from Aspas’ cutback.<\/p>\n

Barca defender Samuel Umtiti pulled up with a hamstring injury while chasing Aspas for that goal, and has been ruled out for eight weeks.<\/p>\n

The Catalan side are five points above Valencia, who visit Getafe on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Celta Vigo – who move up to eighth – were good value for their draw, with a positive attacking attitude. Aspas, in particular was excellent.<\/p>\n

Barcelona did have chances to win an open game, and Messi, La Liga’s top scorer with 13 goals in 14 games, headed wide from four yards out.<\/p>\n

Atletico Madrid are a point behind Valencia, having come from behind to beat Real Sociedad 2-1. Willian Jose put La Real ahead with a penalty, but Filipe Luis equalised before Antoine Griezmann’s 88th-minute winner.<\/p>\n

Fourth-placed Real Madrid are at Athletic Bilbao at 19:45 GMT.<\/p>\n
