Barcelona Dominates Barbastro in Copa del Rey Clash

FC Barcelona advanced to the last sixteen of the Copa del Rey with a convincing 4-0 victory over lower league side Barbastro. The match showcased a strong performance from the team, highlighted by goals from Eric García, Robert Lewandowski, and Pablo Torre.

Eric García opened the scoring in the 21st minute, capitalizing on a well-placed cross from Frenkie de Jong. Lewandowski then added to the tally, heading in a free kick taken by Pablo Torre, making it 2-0. The Polish striker netted his second goal shortly after, assisted by Fermin Lopez, before Torre sealed the win with a fourth goal following a mistake by the Barbastro goalkeeper.

The match also marked significant returns for FC Barcelona, including the debut of Wojciech Szczęsny in goal and the return of Ronald Araujo, who wore the captain's armband after a lengthy injury absence of 181 days. Ansu Fati made a comeback as a second-half substitute, and 16-year-old Toni Fernandez from Barça Atlètic made his first appearance for the senior team.

Barcelona's dominance was evident throughout the match, with Szczęsny rarely called into action. This victory serves as a crucial step in their preparations for the upcoming Spanish Super Cup in Saudi Arabia. Currently, FC Barcelona sits in third place in the LaLiga EA Sports 2024/2025 standings, with 38 points from 19 matches.
