Luis Suarez scored a hat trick as Barcelona came from behind to defeat Eibar 3-1 Sunday, joining Real Madrid atop the Spanish league standings.
Eibar surprised early at the Camp Nou with a goal by striker Borja Baston in the 10th minute, but Suarez helped the defending champion rally with goals in the 21st, 48th and 85th minutes.
Barcelona played the final minutes with 10 men after defender Javier Mascherano was sent off with a straight red card.
Barcelona and Real Madrid have 21 points each after nine rounds, but Madrid remained ahead on goal difference after defeating fourth-place Celta Vigo 3-1 Saturday in Vigo. Celta fell three points behind the leader.
Atletico Madrid moved to third by beating Valencia 2-1 Sunday with goals by Jackson Martinez in the 32nd and Yannick Carrasco in the 40th at the Vicente Calderon Stadium in Madrid. Paco Alcacer scored Valencia's goal by converting a penalty kick in the 72nd.
On the one-year anniversary of his first game with Barcelona, Suarez took his tally to 10 goals this season. He has seven in the league, only one less than Neymar.
Earlier Sunday, fifth-place Villarreal missed a chance to stay near the leaders after a 0-0 draw at newcomer Las Palmas, while Real Sociedad defeated host Levante 4-0 with a pair of goals by forward Carlos Vela.

Levante released a statement late Sunday night to say Alcaraz had been fired along with his coaching staff following an extraordinary board meeting at the club's Ciutat de Valencia stadium.
PSG extends lead
Paris Saint-Germain strikers enjoyed a prolific evening and left-back Laywin Kurzawa made the most of one of his rare starts to score his first goal with the French champions in a 4-1 win over Saint-Etienne Sunday.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Edinson Cavani and Lucas Moura scored PSG's other goals, giving Laurent Blanc's unbeaten side a seven-point lead over promoted Angers at the top of the standings after just 11 weeks.
Earlier, Bernardo Silva scored to give Monaco its first league victory in a month with a 1-0 win at Reims while struggling Marseille ended a seven-match winless run.

Brazilian midfielder Raffael scored one and set up another as Borussia Moenchengladbach defeated visiting Schalke 3-1 in the late game.
Roma wins at Fiorentina
