As Barcelona defeated Mallorca on the road, Robert Lewandowski scored once more to help his team move to the top of La Liga.
With a low, curving finish into the bottom corner, Lewandowski scored his ninth league goal in seven games since joining from Bayern Munich in the summer.
Goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen made an outstanding stop to prevent Mallorca from tying the score.
As Barcelona won, Ter Stegen also made excellent saves from Antonio Sanchez and Lee Kang-in.
With six wins and one tie in seven games, Barca is currently first in La Liga.
Victory lifts them over Real Madrid, who have a perfect record after six games and will return to the top if they beat Osasuna at home on Sunday.
