In the 16th week of La Liga, Barcelona drew 1-1 with Eibar in the game it played on the field.

In Barcelona, ​​Lionel Messi, Gerard Pique, Sergi Roberto and Ansu Fati were not included in the squad due to injuries and Jordi Alba due to card suspension.

The first half of the match ended in a goalless draw, and the visiting team Eibar took the lead 1-0 with Enrique Garcia in the 57th minute.

Barcelona, ​​which brought equality to the score with Ousmane Dembele's goal in the 67th minute, who came into the squad after a four-week injury, could not evaluate the positions it caught in the following minutes and left the field with one point.

Having received the fourth draw in the league, Barcelona fell to 6th place with 25 points. Barcelona, ​​which is two games more than leader Atletico Madrid, is still seven points behind. Eibar is in the 14th place with 16 points.

On the other hand, Messi, who had a mild injury in the right ankle in Barcelona, ​​extended his holiday due to the Christmas holiday with the approval of coach Ronald Koeman and was not included in the squad of the Eibar match.
