Barcelona's La Liga title hopes suffered a setback on Saturday when Spain striker Iago Aspas scored a late free kick to snatch a 2-2 draw at home to the Catalans.
Aspas' strike, which came after he fell over the outstretched legs of Gerard Pique, denied Barcelona a win and kept their title hopes alive.
The draw put Barca back on top of the table on 69 points after 32 games, but Real Madrid, on 68, can go two points clear at the summit if they beat Espanyol away from home on Sunday.
Luis Suarez headed Barca in front in the 20th minute, thanks to a piece of ingenuity from Lionel Messi, who lofted the ball towards his Uruguayan strike partner.
However, Russia striker Fedor Smolov equalised for Celta early in the second half, knocking in a pass from Okay Yokuslu to complete a quick counterattack after Barca's Ivan Rakitic had given the ball away.
But Suarez restored Barca's lead in the 67th minute after combining again with Messi, swivelling to fire into the bottom corner.
Aspas' late strike, however, ensured that Celta earned a point and moved eight points clear of the relegation zone.
