Late Penalty Saves Barca, Valverde Celebrates 500th Game In La Liga
La Liga: Ilkay Gundogan scored an injury-time penalty to give FC Barcelona a 2-1 win in Las Palmas on Thursday to keep their La Liga title hopes alive.
The game passed the 90-minute mark with the score at 1-1, which would have left Barca nine points behind Real Madrid and Girona, but the German international won the spot kick after he was pushed by Daley Sinkgraven as he looked to nod home a loose ball, reported Xinhua.
Two former Barcelona players, Sandro and Munir, had combined to give Las Palmas an 11th-minute lead, with Barca keeper Inaki Pena's hesitation allowing Munir to bundle home Sandro's cross.
