FC Barcelona put on a dazzling show, thrashing Valencia 6-0 in a La Liga match at the Estadi Johan Cruyff on Sunday night. Even without stars like injured teen sensation Lamine Yamal, the Catalans dominated with goals from Fermín López, Raphinha, and Robert Lewandowski, who each scored twice. This win highlights Barcelona’s attacking firepower and depth.
The game, moved from the famous Camp Nou due to renovations, started strong for Barça. They bossed 74% possession in the first half and fired off 11 shots without Valencia managing a single one. But they only led 1-0 at halftime, thanks to Fermín López’s cool finish from Ferran Torres’ perfect pass. Valencia barely fought back and got lucky to be just one goal down.
Things exploded in the second half. Raphinha pounced on a mix-up between Valencia’s defender Copete and keeper Julen Agirrezabala to make it 2-0. Soon after, Fermín López smashed in a rocket from outside the box for his second, putting the game away.
The goals kept coming. Raphinha grabbed his brace with a strong shot after controlling a high ball brilliantly. Then, sub Robert Lewandowski celebrated his 150th game for Barcelona with a stunning top-corner strike. He wrapped it up with a cheeky chip over the keeper—VAR checked an offside call and gave it, sealing the 6-0 rout.
The night’s emotional highlight? In the 81st minute, young midfielder Marc Bernal made his comeback after over a year out with serious injuries. The 18-year-old assisted Lewandowski’s second goal, earning a huge standing ovation from fans. It’s a big moment for his bright future.
This massive victory boosts Barcelona to second in La Liga standings. Next up, they face Newcastle United away in their UEFA Champions League opener on Thursday—fans can’t wait!
