Overview
- Barcelona beat Getafe 3-0 at Spotify Camp Nou on Saturday to move to eight wins from eight in LaLiga and nine victories from nine in all competitions.
- Anthony Gordon opened the scoring inside two minutes with his first goal for the club after a dribbling run and deflected shot that broke Getafe’s defensive plan.
- Gabriel Jesus scored on his first start for Barcelona, and Jules Koundé added a third from a Lamine Yamal cross to finish a controlled home performance.
- Raphinha remained sidelined with a right-leg muscle/hamstring injury sustained during the international break and was ruled out of the Getafe match and the upcoming trip to Galatasaray.
- Hansi Flick managed minutes across the squad to preserve fitness, maintain a dominant possession approach against Getafe’s low block, and prepare for a congested run of fixtures that will test squad rotation in Europe and domestically.
