Rashford subbed off at HALF as Barcelona stage stunning comeback in Levante win

Marcus Rashford endured a difficult evening after he was subbed of at half-time in his first start for Barcelona.

The England forward joined the Catalan side on loan from Manchester United last month, with an option to make the deal permanent for around £30million.

He made his LaLiga debut from the bench last week as Barca cruised to a 3-0 win over Mallorca on the opening day of the season.

And the 27-year-old made his first start against Levante on the left wing, with Raphinha down the middle behind Ferran Torres and Lamine Yamal on the right.

He had an early half-chance after taking a corner which was cleared back to him.

Rashford got into the box and had a snap-shot which forced a comfortable save from home keeper Pablo Campos.

The United loanee failed to make a significant impact as Barca went 2-0 down in the first half.

He was taken off at half-time alongside Marc Casado with Dani Olmo and Gavi taking their place.

Barcelona had fallen behind after 15 minutes when Ivan Romero found room in the area and calmly finished past Joan Garcia.

Jose Luis Morales then converted from the spot to double Levante's lead on the stroke of half-time after Alejandro Balde was deemed to have handled the ball.

However, Barca were on level terms within seven minutes of Rashford's substitution thanks to goals by Pedri and Ferran Torres.

The turnaround was sealed in the first minute of added time as Levante’s Unai Elgezabal diverted Lamine Yamal’s dangerous cross into his own net.
