Barcelona 1 - 0 Mallorca : Dani Olmo strike keeps Barcelona's title charge on track
Barcelona's Dani Olmo scored inside the first minute of the second half to earn a hard-fought 1-0 home win against Mallorca on Tuesday, extending their lead over Real Madrid at the top of the table to seven points with five games to go.
Barça dominated proceedings despite coach Hansi Flick deciding to rest several key starters ahead of Saturday's Copa del Rey final against bitter rivals Madrid, but Mallorca goalkeeper Leo Roman put on a show between the posts to keep them at bay.
The hosts finally managed to break the deadlock shortly after the break thanks to a fine piece of individual skill from Olmo, who took the ball in a tight space inside the box and quickly fired a left foot shot into the bottom corner before Mallorca's defenders could challenge him.
The win lifted Barça to 76 points at the top of the LaLiga standings with Madrid, who visit Getafe on Wednesday, seven points adrift with a game in hand.
