Mastering the game of counter total for the visitors, Sevilla at Camp Nou, Barcelona failed to convert chances into goals and a line must be satisfied with one point.
Los Blaugrana had even had a very good opportunity to ensure victory when the referee pointed to the spot in injury time.
Unfortunately, Lionel Messi as the executor failed to perform the task. His kick saved by keeper Javi Varas who escorted the Sevilla goalkeeper.
Argentina star's inability to maximize penalty arguably contributed greatly to the failure of Barca picking tripoin which resulted in the release position atop the standings to Real Madrid.
Nevertheless, Messi was still supported by his colleagues, who felt no one could have just failed to convert the penalty.
"Things can go bad in games like this. We try everything we can, creation opportunities, but their goalkeeper is very sensational," said Andres Iniesta at Barcelona's official website.
"As for the penalty, those who take it are those who might fail, but Lionel will continue to release the shot and scored," added the midfielder.
"Messi is always helping the team and always try to score goals. Now we have to help him because he is an amazing player," said right-back Dani Alves.
