Barcelona 3-0 Getafe: Hansi Flick’s Side Extend Winning Run with Dominant Victory
Barcelona maintained their flawless start to the La Liga season with a dominant 3-0 victory over Getafe at the Spotify Camp Nou, securing an eighth consecutive win in as many league matches.
Playing without the rested Raphinha, Hansi Flick’s side needed just two minutes to break the deadlock. Anthony Gordon capitalised on a chaotic scramble on the edge of the penalty area, firing a deflected shot past goalkeeper David Soria to net his first official goal in Blaugrana colors.
Despite dominating possession and controlling the tempo, Barcelona had to wait until the second half to put the game beyond doubt. Gabriel Jesus added the crucial second goal to reward his start, before Jules Koundé sealed the comprehensive victory in the 73rd minute by latching onto a pass inside the box and striking cleanly first-time.
The Catalan giants thoroughly controlled the contest, restricting Getafe to just a single shot on target while racking up 23 attempts at the other end. The routine win equals the club record for eight straight victories to open a league campaign, a feat previously managed under Tata Martino in the 2013/14 season, leaving Barcelona sitting comfortably at the summit of La Liga.
