Barcelona salvages late draw against Betis in Spanish league (The Associated Press)

Lionel Messi set up Luis Suarez's 90th-minute equalizer to help Barcelona salvage a 1-1 draw at Real Betis on Sunday, but the result could leave the Catalan club even further adrift of the Spanish league leader. Real Madrid, which has a game in hand, can open a four-point gap if it beats fifth-placed Real Sociedad at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium later on Sunday. ''This result wasn't in our plans, but we have the entire second half of the league still to play and we have to keep putting pressure on the teams ahead of us,'' Barcelona coach Luis Enrique said.
