Barcelona Crushes Como 5–0 in Joan Gamper Trophy to Cap Preseason

FC Barcelona ended their preseason with a big win, beating Serie A side Como 5–0 in the Joan Gamper Trophy at the Estadi Johan Cruyff. Fermín López and Lamine Yamal were the stars of the match, each scoring twice, while Raphinha added another before halftime. The team dominated from the start, pressing high, moving the ball quickly, and taking advantage of every chance to put the game away in the first half.

Fermín López stood out with his hard work and accuracy, confirming his desire to stay at the club. Lamine Yamal, just 18 years old, once again impressed with his skill and finishing. It was also the debut for new signings like Marcus Rashford and Joan García, who fit well into the team’s style. The defense stayed solid, and overall the squad left a strong impression heading into the season.

With preseason over — 20 goals in four friendlies — Barcelona now turns its focus to their La Liga opener on Saturday, August 16, away against Mallorca. Even with key players like Lewandowski still injured, the team’s depth and Hansi Flick’s high-intensity style bring optimism for a strong start in their title defense.
