Barcelona fought back three times to snatch a 3-3 draw at Club Brugge in the Champions League on Wednesday, with the visitors equalising for the final time late in the second half with an own goal scored by 20-year-old Belgium defender Joaquin Seys.
The result leaves Barcelona 11th in the standings on seven points from four matches while Club Brugge sit 22nd on four points, with both teams still in the hunt for qualification.
In a thriller at Brugge's Jan Breydel Stadium, the home side opened the scoring through Nicolo Tresoldi in the sixth minute, after a quick counter by Carlos Forbs, but Barcelona hit right back with Ferran Torres finding the net from close range two minutes later.
Brugge regained the lead in the 17th minute with Forbs scoring after another quick counter, but teenager Lamine Yamal scored a brilliant individual goal in the 60th minute to level the match again.
Four minutes later Forbs scored from another counter attack, but defender Seys headed the ball into his own net when trying to clear as Barca rescued a point away from home.
Champions League 'league phase' table
Last year's finalists Inter Milan had to battle before beating Kairat Almaty 2-1 at the San Siro, with the Italians keeping their perfect record in this season's Champions League despite conceding their first goal of the competition.
After a poor first period from Inter, Lautaro Martinez put the hosts ahead on the stroke of half-time but the San Siro was stunned 10 minutes after the break when Ofri Arad equalised with a header from a corner.
Carlos Augusto put Inter back in front in the 67th minute and while the home side were unable to find another goal to kill off the brave Kazakhs, their sluggish performance was still rewarded with the three points.
Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen scored a second-half hat-trick to ensure a comfortable 3-0 away win over hapless Ajax Amsterdam .
Osimhen stooped to head home Leroy Sane's cross in the 59th minute to open the scoring and then tucked away a 66th-minute penalty after a clumsy handball by defender Youri Baas.
Ajax gave away a second spot kick when Gerald Alders, on his European debut, inadvertently handled the ball in the box while trying to block a shot, with Osimhen stroking home the resultant penalty in the 78th minute.
Ajax came closest to a goal after an error from Galatasaray goalkeeper Ugurcan Cakir allowed Mika Godts a shot at an empty net but he missed out on the opportunity.
Bayer Leverkusen's Patrik Schick came off the bench to grab the only goal of the game in a 1-0 away win over Benfica that condemned Jose Mourinho's side to their fourth straight defeat in this season's group stage.
The Portuguese hosts dominated the first half, hitting the woodwork twice through Dodi Lukebakio and Nicolas Ottamendi as they racked up chance after chance, and they came to rue their wasteful finishing in the 65th minute.
Benfica thought they had averted the danger when keeper Anatoliy Trubin parried Schick's initial shot, but defender Samuel Dahl inexplicably headed the ball back across the goal to the Leverkusen substitute striker who broke the deadlock with a looping header.
A first win of the campaign for the Bundesliga side lifted Leverkusen to 21st in the table on five points, while Benfica are second from bottom having failed to earn a point, with only goal difference keeping them above Ajax.
Villarreal fell to a humbling 1-0 defeat away to Pafos, as their dismal Champions League campaign continued after Derrick Luckassen scored to give the Cypriot side their first win of the competition.
The Spanish club may be riding high in third place in LaLiga, but remain on one point in Europe, while Pafos move on to five points.
Pafos' goal came in the opening minute of the second half when they won a corner and unmarked defender Luckassen powered a header into the net.
Villarreal's search for an equaliser lacked any real conviction to leave the home fans celebrating a famous win.
Olympique de Marseille's chances of qualifying for the knockout stages took a major hit when they slumped to a last-gasp 1-0 defeat at home against Atalanta in painful fashion.
Lazar Samardzic netted the only goal in the last minute with a superb strike from outside the box at the end of a counter attack while Marseille players were screaming for a penalty for an Ederson handball.
The result left Roberto de Zerbi’s team with three points from four games in the elimination zone in 25th place in the 36-team league, while Atalanta moved up to 16th on seven points.
