The Barça roller hockey team were back at the Palau Blaugrana for the first time in 120 days, but a win unfortunately eluded them in this matchday four game of the OK Liga. Trailing 0-2 at half time, the blaugranes couldn't quite turn it around, going on to lose 3-5 to Liceo.

Difficult scoreline at the break

Barça began well and created a lot of chances, including Barroso hitting the bar (min 6) or a spin and shot by Sergi Llorca (min 7). However, Liceo struck first through Bruno Saavedra (0-1, min 13), with Nuno Paiva getting a quick-fire second a minute later.

Reactions falls short

Ferran Font could have reduced the distance before the break, but the goal by César Carballeira (0-3, min 30) after the restart really hit the home side hard.

Barça kept going though, and despite another by Bruno Saavedra (1-4, min 40) after Pablo Álvarez got the first for the home side (1-3, min 34), a Xavi Barroso penalty (2-4, min 45) and an Aragonés goal (3-4, min 48), game the blaugranes real hope with two minutes to go.

Ultimately César Carballeira made the most of an all out attack while Barça were on the hunt for the equaliser (3-5, min 49) and his side left with the win.
