Lionel Messi scored a last-minute penalty to hand Barcelona all three points as they beat Valencia 3-2 at the Mestalla on Saturday.
Messi opened the scoring in the first half with a fine low effort for the visitors, who lost captain Andres Iniesta to injury after just 10 minutes.
On-loan Barcelona striker Munir El Haddadi hit a low strike past Marc-Andre ter Stegen soon after the break, before fellow forward Rodrigo finished well after running onto a lofted pass from former Manchester United winger Nani.
Luis Suarez finished in typical fashion to bring the champions level after Diego Alves could only push Ivan Rakitic's header straight into his path, before Messi's late penalty won it in dramatic fashion.
