Alexander Sorloth and Jose Luis Morales struck deep into stoppage time to earn Villarreal a 5-3 win at Barcelona in a roller-coaster LaLiga conflict on Saturday.

Villarreal opened a two-goal lead with efforts from Gerard Moreno within the forty first minute and Ilias Akhomach within the 54th, however the hosts fought again inside 11 minutes by strikes by Ilkay Gundogan, Pedri and an personal aim from Eric Bailly.

Goncarlo Guedes equalised for Villarreal following a fast counter-attack within the 84th minute and with Barcelona pushing for a winner they had been uncovered and Sorloth and Morales punished them.

Barcelona are third within the standings on 44 factors, 10 behind leaders Real Madrid and eight adrift of second-placed Girona.
