MADRID (AP) — Lamine Yamal was out injured, Robert Lewandowski missed a potential equalizing penalty kick and Barcelona lost its second straight match with a disheartening 4-1 defeat at Sevilla in the Spanish league on Sunday. Combined with a midweek loss to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League, Barcelona is not entering the international break in a positive mood. The result also meant that Real Madrid remained atop the Spanish league standings, two points ahead of previously unbeaten Barcelona.
