 Barcelona lost in La Liga for the first time this season, falling to a shock 3-2 defeat at mid-table Real Sociedad.

Goals from Lionel Messi and Pedro put the Catalan side 2-0 up at half-time.

But Uruguayan winger Gonzalo Castro scored twice for the hosts, either side of a red card for Barca's ex-Manchester United defender Gerard Pique.

And Tito Vilanova's men were left without even a point when Imanol Agirretxe poked in from close range in injury time.  Barcelona have started the season in record-breaking fashion, accumulating 55 points from a possible 57, their only dropped points a draw against Jose Mourinho's Real Madrid.

And, even in defeat, Ballon d'Or winner Messi closed in on yet another goalscoring milestone, having now found the net in 10 consecutive La Liga matches to tie the record held by former Brazilian striker Ronaldo, who accomplished the feat with Barcelona in the 1996-97 season.
