🏁 FULL TIME! Barcelona 5-0 Real Betis.
The match was an absolute spectacle, filled with thrilling moments and standout performances:
🤤 89′ Lewy almost with a backheel finish! He will surely score one sooner or later.
⚽️ 81′ CANCELOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! WHAT A NIGHT FOR BARCA’S TWO NEW SIGNINGS! HE’S GOT HIS FIRST GOAL FOR BLAUGRANA! The wing-back has simply destroyed Juan Miranda!
⚽️ 66′ RAPHINHA! ANOTHER STUNNER FROM BARCA! 4-0! The goals galore!
⚽️ 62′ WHAT. THE. HELL. FERRAN SCORES FROM A DIRECT FREE KICK. UNBELIEVABLE.
😂 58′ Felix scores one more, but the flag is up. He looks unstoppable tonight. And so motivated.
xStyxx (Reddit): “Felix, holy s**t, crazy technique on the ball.”
🏃♂️ 56′ Lamine Yamal, Raphinha and Ilkay Gundogan all warming up. As a reminder, we play Antwerp in the Champions League in 3 days.
😮💨 52′ Ufff, Ferran! Too much unnecessary movement from Lewandowski, but Torres almost scores nonetheless. A bit unlucky.
😉 48′ Xavi loved that long-range effort from Ferran. Nice to see.
🔥 SECOND HALF!
😅 Abde and Betis’ third-choice goalie coming on.
👍👎 Half-time ratings: best and worst players
Best
- Felix. No words needed – he has brought some real magic to Montjuic tonight.
- Cancelo. Immensely good at supporting attacks and creating chances.
- Romeu. Fundamental at building from the back. Heavily contributed to the opening goal with a great ball into the box (that late mistake was unnecessary, though).
Worst
- Balde. Too error-prone defensively once again. His passing leaves much to be desired too.
⏱️ For the first time in a while, I didn’t want this to end! Yet the first half is over. Barca looking super confident with two Joaos.
😍 45+2′ Joao Felix almost with a brace. Great play from Ferran here, so unselfish.
🤩 45+1′ MARC. ANDRE. TER STEGEN. What a save, unbelievable.
😬 45′ Oops, a harsh mistake from Romeu who almost allows Betis to create a scoring chance out of nothing. Luckily, their attacker was offside.
😩 42′ Lewandowski’s brace would be great here. It’s our good old Marc Bartra who comes up with a crucial block. Great stuff from Joao Felix to set Lewy up for a chance once again.
🥲 34′ What a feeling, guys. We finally play both smart and effective football – largely thanks to the two new signings.
⚽️ 32′ WE ARE GOING TO THRASH THEM! LEWANDOWSKI SCORES FROM OPEN PLAY! Once again, Joao Felix is doing a brilliant job by skipping the ball as Andreas Christensen assists Lewy! Wow!
thepieman42 (Reddit): “It feels like the two Joao’s is all the club was missing.”
⚽️ 25′ GOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!! MAGIC STUFF FROM JOAO FELIX! Some truly fabulous touches from the Portuguese to beat the goalkeeper and find the net from a tight angle! Brilliant build-up play from Joao Cancelo and Oriol Romeu.
LordOfUtterbol (Reddit): “Gavi and Felix celebrating with so much passion.”
😅 19′ Balde is always so, so similar to Alphonso Davies. Stunning offensively but often error-prone at the back. He clearly doesn’t like doing that dirty defensive stuff.
🚨 15′ But of course Betis get the best chance of the game so far. We are lucky not to concede here. Kounde was at fault, Balde nowhere near the episode too.
Tuinhek FC (Reddit): “We look vulnerable on counters with 2 overlapping wing-backs. Imagine if we do it in the Champions League.”
🤤 13′ I was buzzing when I saw Cancelo passing the ball into that open space with Balde. Simple but effective playmaking.
😬 9′ Smart play from Felix who doesn’t touch the ball to leave it for Lewandowski instead. Robert apparently unhappy with Gavi’s positioning – the latter was too lazy at running forward to support the attack.
🔥 7′ Well, that’s what we expect from Cancelo a lot. Cuts inside, moves to the midfield and takes a shot from a good position. He is one more midfielder on the team, get used to it.
IAmYourHuckleBerry (Reddit): “Having a proper right back is such a weird feeling. Almost forgot how it was.”
👏 *6′ Great efforts – first from Gavi, then from Felix to win the ball back by applying pressure on their opponents.
🤩 4′ Kounde acts as one more midfielder while in possession. Such a pleasure to see him actively support Barca’s attacks.
😬 2′ Before the game, Xavi said Barca would need a lot of possession tonight. One of the early episodes shows the team carelessly losing it twice.
🔥 KICK OFF!
👀 Abde starts on the bench for Betis tonight.
