<b>Barcelona</b> secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory over <b>Alavés</b>

Barcelona secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Alavés thanks to a second-half goal from Robert Lewandowski in the 61st minute. The match proved to be one of the toughest for the Catalans this season, as they struggled to break down a well-organized Alavés defense.

In a first half that was notably uneventful, Barcelona managed only 3 shots on target, the fewest they’ve registered in a home game this season. However, after the break, the team came out with greater intensity, eventually finding the breakthrough through Lewandowski.

For the Polish striker, the goal was his 60th in La Liga, a remarkable achievement that took him just 90 matches to reach. Lewandowski's consistency in front of goal continues to be a crucial asset for Barcelona this season.

The victory also allowed Barcelona, under the guidance of coach Hansi Flick, to close the gap to Real Madrid to just 4 points, keeping their title hopes very much alive.
