Robert Lewandowski scored his first La Liga hat-trick as Barcelona leapfrogged Girona into second with a 4-2 comeback win over ten-man Valencia in Montjuic.

Fermin’s towering header opened the scoring on 22 minutes, before Hugo Duro responded within five minutes for Valencia, as he seized upon a careless mistake from Marc-Andre ter Stegen, who tried to nonchalantly dink the ball over the onrushing striker’s head.

Pepelu put Valencia ahead on 38 minutes from the spot after Ronald Araujo chopped down Peter Rodriguez in the box.

Ruben Baraja’s visitors played the entire second half with deputy goalkeeper Jaume Domenech between the sticks after first-choice shot-stopper Giorgi Mamardashvili was dismissed for handling outside his area after he sloppily controlled Yarek Gasiorowski’s backpass.

Lewandowski’s near post header had Xavi’s hosts level four minutes into the second half, and the Polish talisman was at it once more with another header from a set play to notch the home side back in front with eight minutes remaining.

Valencia struggled to deal with Ilkay Gundogan’s inswinger, with the ball ricocheting off the head of Araujo, and into the path of Lewandowski, who guided it into the unguarded net.

The former Bayern Munich striker was not done there as, deep into stoppage time, he curled a sumptuous free-kick into the top corner to score his third and Barca’s fourth.

Barca travel to third-placed Girona this weekend as both battle it out for the final Supercopa place.

There we have it. Valencia put up a fight, and gave Barca an almighty scare, but Xavi's side ultimately got the job done. Lewandowski came up trumps for them once again - as he always does - netting what is remarkably his maiden La Liga hat-trick. Thanks for joining us, be sure to come back very soon for more live Spanish football.

He's got the hat-trick, and it's up and over the wall, and sumptuously into the top corner! Barcelona have four, and the Pole has three.

The hosts have a free kick on the edge of the area... Lewandowski is interested.

The set plays have been Valencia's undoing, as another corner is put in, and a free header is batted away by Domenech, when perhaps he should have caught it!

It's there, and they're finally ahead once more! An inswinger from Gundogan isn't cleared, and it ricochets off the head of Araujo, and up kindly into the path of Lewandowski, who nods into the unguarded net. 3-2!

Ferran Torres has replaced Cancelo, while Ozkacar and Canos are on for the visitors.

... of Domenech as Lewandowski spins on a sixpence at the edge of the area and strikes with his left, but, off balance, it's a tame effort that the keeper can gather.

Lopez bursts through, and he bears down on goal, but Pedri, just on, makes a goal-saving challenge to save Barca's skins on the counter!

Yamal delivers the corner, and a flicked header comes in from Araujo at the near post, which Domenech saves well.

Pedri is on for the hosts.

The hosts have a set piece opportunity after Felix's shot is deflected behind by Mosquera.

Alberto Mari is on for Hugo Duro.

Javi Guerra is complaining as he is replaced by Hugo Guillamon.

Cancelo looks for Yamal, who touches it down to the onrushing Kounde, who strikes, but Gasiorowski makes a good interception.

It is now a back three for the hosts, with Yamal as an auxiliary right wing-back and Cancelo more advanced down the left. Kounde has shifted infield as a third centre-back.

Joao Felix is coming on to replace Raphinha, in a straight swap on the left.

... from the Barcelona faithful. They're getting impatient...
