Got curious after seeing chatter online about that Barcelona vs Leganes game – couldn’t remember the exact score myself. Grabbed my laptop around coffee break time thinking this’ll be quick.

First thing popped into Google: FC Barcelona vs CD Leganes final score 2020. The top result showed 2-0 for Barca… but wait, I thought Leganes might’ve sneaked one in? Scrolled further down and saw another site saying 1-1. Total confusion now.

Pulled up multiple tabs checking different sources:

  • The league’s official archive: Messi scored both in a 2-0 home win
  • Two stats sites agreeing with that
  • One shady forum thread insisting it was 2-1

Found match footage later – skipped straight to goals section. Sure enough, Messi’s brace around 70th minute, zero Leganes goals. Some analytics sites showed shots on target count too:

  • Barca: 7 shots on goal
  • Leganes: 3 shots on goal

Realized that 1-1 rumor probably came from their earlier Copa del Rey clash. My bad for not specifying which match! Almost tweeted wrong stats like an idiot.
