Barcelona returned to winning form in spectacular fashion, thrashing Valencia 6-0 in their La Liga encounter at Estadi Johan Cruyff on September 14, 2025. The Catalan giants showcased their attacking prowess with two goals each from Fermín López, Raphinha, and Robert Lewandowski, marking a dominant performance that left Valencia reeling.

The match began with Barcelona taking control, and it didn’t take long for them to open the scoring. Fermín López found the net in the 29th minute with a well-executed finish following a clever setup from Ferran Torres. This goal set the tone for the match, as Barcelona continued to assert their dominance, defending well against sporadic attacks from Valencia.

The second half saw Barcelona erupt offensively, with Raphinha scoring two quick goals in the 53rd and 66th minutes, showcasing his ability to capitalize on defensive errors. López added his second goal in the 56th minute with a powerful shot from outside the box, further extending the lead. Lewandowski, who came on as a substitute, also made a significant impact by scoring twice in the final minutes, sealing a comprehensive victory for the hosts.

This win propelled Barcelona to second place in the La Liga standings, just behind Real Madrid, and sets them up well for their upcoming Champions League clash against Newcastle. The performance was particularly impressive given the absence of injured players, including Lamine Yamal, and demonstrated the depth of talent within the squad. With this victory, Barcelona has reaffirmed their status as a formidable force in Spanish football.
