Olot 2-1 Barça B: Beaten on the road

Garcia Pimienta's squad took the lead at La Garrotxa but were unable to grind out a win

Barça B took the lead early on in this game, thanks to a penalty from Rey Manaj in the ninth minute. The match was played at a great pace and intensity, and with Olot consistently searching for the equaliser, they found it 31 minutes in, Barnils heading home a corner.

Matheus almost put the visitors back in front again with a powerful shot but there were no further goals before the break. Into the second half, and Ramos Mingo neatly controlled the ball after a short corner and knocked it on to Rey Manaj who had an open goal to aim at but only managed to hit the post.

Olot made it 2-1 in the 70th minute through Xumetra, despite not being in the game for long periods. Collado came on for Barça after being out for a while, and despite Barça B's best efforts, Garcia Pimienta's men weren't able to get back in the match.

This Sunday, Lleida are the visitors to the Johan Cruyff Stadium.
