Barcelona’s devastating attack ran riot on Monday night to comfortably defeat Rayo Vallecano 5–2, making it three wins from three games to start the season for Hansi Flick’s titleholders.
The visitors struck early against the run of play with Sergio Camello quieting the Camp Nou on a well-taken finish 12 minutes in. But Barcelona didn’t panic and by the time the 25th minute hit, they had taken the lead thanks to two sensational goals from Raphinha which was followed by Lamine Yamal‘s first of the term—a screamer.
