Barcelona coasted past Athletic Club 4–0 to celebrate their return to Camp Nou in the best way possible.
In the first match at the Les Corts avenue soccer cathedral, Hansi Flick’s side looked energized from the starting whistle and Robert Lewandowski, who wore the captain’s armband from the start for the first time in his Barcelona career, became the first goalscorer at the renovated Camp Nou.
Ferran Torres bagged a brace and Fermín López added another strike against a weak Athletic Club to put an exclamation point on the historic afternoon. Raphinha also returned from injury as Barcelona pulled level with Real Madrid atop La Liga with Los Blancos yet to play this weekend.
The emphatic performance should have Barcelona confident ahead of their trip to Stamford Bridge to face Chelsea in the Champions League on Tuesday.
