Barcelona saw their Primera Liga lead cut to a solitary point
by Real Madrid as they were held to a goalless draw by Valencia
at the Mestalla - and they will be relieved to have escaped with
that result.
Pablo Hernandez went close from his own half and strike partner
Juan Mata missed a host of chances, while David Silva was denied
by Victor Valdes from the best opportunity of the match.
Rodriguez Pedrito and Yaya Toure threatened for Barca, but they
will be happy to take a share of the spoils and remain a point ahead
of arch-rivals Madrid, who beat Real Valladolid 4-2.
