Barcelona right winger Lamine Yamal scored twice as the club crushed Valencia 5-0 at the Mestalla Stadium, maintaining their perfect start to the La Liga season.
The victory pushes Hansi Flick’s side three points clear at the top of the table after Real Madrid dropped points earlier in the weekend.
Yamal, who had missed team training on Saturday due to a minor knock, showed no signs of injury as he spearheaded a dominant offensive performance.
The right winger opened the scoring in the sixth minute with a clever lob after a precise pass from Fermin Lopez.
Lopez then doubled the lead in the 22nd minute off an assist from Anthony Gordon.
Despite losing Eric Garcia to an injury midway through the first half, Barcelona dominated possession and created continuous chances, extending their lead further after the break when Raphinha tapped in his sixth goal of the season.
Pedri added a fourth goal following a neat combination with Dani Olmo, while new signing Gabriel Jesus made his club debut off the bench late in the second half.
Yamal capped off the blowout performance by netting his second goal of the match from another Olmo pass, securing Barcelona’s fourth consecutive victory in the domestic campaign.
