BARCELONA, Spain (AP) — Robert Lewandowski has scored in stoppage time to snatch Barcelona a 1-0 win at Valencia and pull the team level with Real Madrid atop the Spanish league. The Poland striker’s league-high 13th goal in 12 rounds saved Xavi Hernández’s side from another setback three days after it bowed out of the Champions League at the group phase for a second consecutive year. Cádiz beat Atlético Madrid 3-2 after Rubén Sobrino knocked in a cross just before the final whistle to tilt the seesaw action finally in the hosts’ favor. The last-second loss came just three days after Atlético was also eliminated from the Champions League.
