| The moment Ramos scores Barcelona's goal Reuters |
Barcelona, the defending champion, regained their winning form in the Spanish League with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Sevilla on Friday in the opening match of the eighth round of La Liga.
Barcelona owes their victory to a friendly fire incident, thanks to Sevilla's defender Sergio Ramos, who accidentally scored an own goal.
The former Real Madrid defender, Sergio Ramos, who returned to the ranks of the Andalusian club, scored an own goal in the 76th minute.
Barcelona bounced back after their 2-2 draw against Mallorca last Tuesday, securing their sixth win of the season. With this victory, they reached 20 points and temporarily reclaimed the top spot, leading by just one point ahead of their previous leader, their neighbor Girona, who will host Real Madrid tomorrow in a highly anticipated match.
On the other hand, Sevilla returned to the path of defeats after two wins and a draw. With their fourth loss of the season, they remain stuck at seven points in twelfth place.
