Nice combination for the first Barca goal.

"Penalty decision was debatable, admits Guardiola after Barcelona's win over Levante"

oooeeeff one of the sweetest penalties i have ever seen!

If you watch Cuenca's first touch; its actually a bad one and if the levante player kept his hands down and just barged the kid then its not a penalty. Therefore not a stone cold penalty. But the handball by levante player from Messi's cross is similar to Busquet's handball so maybe that should of been given.

How many of you dimwits actually From Spain? or from Barcelona? Probs about 2%, stop jerking off to barcelona and trying to defend them with justifications and utter nonsense. I love football, I rate all good players and clubs but Barcelona has not done themselves any justice by diving at every opportunity and especially in big games (EL CLASSICO's) and even in CL. Truly unprofessional and ruins what Barcelona should represent; class, quality and professionalism. I don't understand why Pep even puts up with Busquets hes a fking cheat 200%. For that reasons _/_ FCB thanks.

That was a very nerve wrecking game. Levante is a great story & they gave Barca a very tough time. I can't remember the last time Barca had so few clear cut chances. They were also very dangerous on the counter as Kone has a real knack of getting on the end of every clearance & is a dangerous runner in open space.

Now to the calls. As usual some people see only what they like to see & have no interest in being objective. There was an incident in the 2nd half that was a carbon copy of the incident Levante was awarded a PK for yet this time the ref didn't call it. Now, I personally think that neither should have been a PK, but then Levante shouldn't have gotten one either. Either don't call either or call both because they were exactly the same. So no, Barca didn't get any help from the refs regardless of what some will always believe.

The PK Barca did get was a cleat cut, stone cold penalty as Cuenca was clearly pushed off the ball with both hands. I will even tell you more. The commentator of the channel I was watching first reacted with this idiotic indignation that many display on here - like oh my god, Barca is getting a BS call again, but to his credit as soon as he saw a replay once he completely changed his mind, apologized for reacting with too much emotion & admitted that the ref made a perfect call. Some of you could learn a bit from this little story, but I know you won't.

ROFL @ Franky4fingers being mad.

If that was a poor referee call, then I dont know what a good referee call would be

To be honest Messi is single handling carrying Barcelona on his shoulder, I mean 63 goals his just too much pressure on one person in a season, xavi = 10 goals; Alexis = 10 golas, Fabregas have a few goals, so does Pedro, Cuenca and Tello. Messi needs way more help for next season, if He continue like this it will be really burdensome on Messi, Barclona needs another duo like Henry and Eto' to support Messi up front, hopefully Alexis can be one of that duo..

Barca should've got two penalties cause of handball. And cuenca didnt push, tht levante guy pushed with f**king TWO hands. Suck mah DI*k pussies

Levante Valencia is just a good team and have been all year, barca played well enough to win and i don't think that first penalty should have been given..

Barcelona players don't dive these days. They get PKs for fouling the opposition now.

Barca always seems less motivated in away games one of the reason why we drop points. and wtf is guardiola thinking? why did he not play iniesta, he should have learned his lesson after the defeat at the hands of osasuna, when he rested key players from the match because of cl. im getting annoyed at my team. also cuenca,tello,thiago should not play, they arent mature enough.

well played barca, with a bit of luck =D

I think Barça deserved to win, and giving each side a penalty is pretty fair. Still, I was disappointed by Barça, who didn't seem inspired and played with less pace than they usually do.
They'll have to play better than that to beat Chelsea.
