The new La Liga season kicked off with excitement and unexpected events. In the first round, Hans-Dieter Flick’s Barcelona visited Mallorca and confidently secured a 0–3 victory.
From the very first minutes, the visitors took control of the game. In the 8th minute, Raphinha put his team ahead. Shortly after, in the 23rd minute, Ferran Torres also added his name to the scoresheet, doubling the lead. That goal further boosted Barcelona players’ confidence and morale.
Although the first half was intense and competitive, the Catalans did not stop their attacks in the second half either. In stoppage time, Lamine Yamal scored his first goal of the season and sealed the win. This goal not only put an end to the match but also hinted at the young prodigy’s big ambitions for the new season.
The clash was also rich in disciplinary drama. In the 33rd minute, Mallorca’s Manuel Morlanes was shown a straight red card for a foul. Just a few minutes later, in the 39th, Vedat Muriqi was also sent off. As a result, the hosts were left with nine men, making their situation even more difficult.
In conclusion, Barcelona started the new season with a confident victory. Attacking efficiency, the impact of young players, and their disciplinary advantage were positive signs for Flick’s team. Barcelona fans left the stadium with high hopes for the season ahead.
