Objective achieved for the Barça futsal team as they overcame ElPozo Murcia 4-3 at the Palau Blaugrana. The win thanks to goals from Catela and Matheus in the closing minutes means that Javi Rodríguez's team finish the regular season in top spot in the league, ensuring home advantage during the play-offs. 

Level at the break 

Chances came for both sides in the first half and it was Barça who took the lead, Sergio González scoring from a João Víctor assist on 6 minutes. ElPozo reacted slowly but two goals in two minutes just before the break from Marcel and Dener put them ahead. There was still time for Barça to level the scores before half time as Martel made it 2-2. 

ElPozo back in front, comeback from Barça

After the restart, the visitors took the lead again through David Álvarez's far post finish. 3-2 down, Barça increased the tempo and it came as no surprise when Catela scored from the spot on 36 minutes to bring it back to 3-3. A minute later came the winner - Pito's cross was turned home by Matheus to give the blaugranes the win and top spot in the league.
