Barcelona's 125th Anniversary Marred by 2-1 Defeat to Las Palmas

Barcelona: FC Barcelona’s 125th-anniversary celebrations turned sour as they suffered a shock 2-1 defeat to Las Palmas at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys on Saturday. The loss marked their first at home for Barcelona this season and extended their winless streak to three league games, leaving their once-comfortable league lead in jeopardy. Barcelona’s defeat marked their first home loss to Las Palmas since 1970 and capped a disappointing day for fans hoping for a celebratory win. Manager Hansi Flick will now aim to rally his team for Tuesday’s visit to Mallorca, as Barcelona look to steady their faltering campaign. IANS
