Teenager Lamine Yamal became the youngest goalscorer in La Liga history as Barcelona fought back from two goals down to earn a point against Granada.
Aged 16 years and 87 days old, Yamal kickstarted Barcelona’s comeback.
The visitors fell behind after just 17 seconds, with Bryan Zaragoza’s first-half double putting Granada in charge.
But, after Yamal scored in first half added time, Sergi Roberto eventually ended Granada’s resistance with five minutes remaining.
