Lionel Messi scored a late winner for Barcelona and dedicated the goal to Tito Vilanova on an emotional night at El Madrigal.
It was the game Barcelona did not want to play after the passing of their former coach at the age of 45 on Friday. Sergi Busquets was in tears during the minute's silence before the kick-off and it was clear football was the last thing on the players' minds.

But
Messi, one of the players Vilanova coached as a teenager in his first
spell at the club, got the winner that enabled Barça to come back from
being two goals down and leaves them still with an outside chance of
retaining the title.
