Barcelona were hoping to maintain their perfect start to the season, whereas local rivals, Girona, were aiming to climb closer to the Champions League spot. With a 4-1 victory at their home grounds, their aim has been shuttered for now, and they have to work harder next week.

Barcelona’s first goal was from a forced error from Girona’s keeper, David Lopez, as Lamine Yamal took advantage of it. Seven minutes later, the 17-year-old added the second with a wonderful placement from his left foot. Before the break, a penalty was given to Girona as a headed ball from Balde hit the wide arms of Iñigo Martinez. The penalty was later cancelled after a VAR check. Barcelona went into the break with a 2 goal lead.

Right into the second half, Dani Olmo made it three after a great long ball from Pau Cubarsí. The fourth goal came in the 64th minute after an incredible pass from La Masia talent, Marc Casado to Pedri where he dribbled past the keeper.

Girona’s Cristhian Stuani pulled one back for Girona with 10 minutes to end the game. Substitute Ferran Torres was shown a straight red card after a challenge on Yaser Asprilla. This win keeps Barcelona on top of the table as they head to Monaco for their first Champions League game of the season.
