July 30, 2023

New Delhi: Barcelona blank their arch-rival Real Madrid by 3-0 at the AT&T  in Arlington, Texas. Ousmane Dembélé’s goal early in the 15th minute from a set-piece on the practice pitch set the La Liga champions on track, before two goals in the closing stages sealed the result. The centerpiece of those two goals was 20-year-old youngster Fermín Lopez.

Vinicius Jr misses target

Real Madrid had a few chances but Vinicius Jr. hit the crossbar from a first-half penalty and Madrid hit the crate four more times, Los Blancos really missed the service of former captain and forward Karim Benzema, who moved to Saudi Arabia’s club Al Ittihad.

Goal of the day

Fermín Lopez, 20, scored a slugger and made headlines with this secure hit. Even world-class goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois couldn’t have done anything about it.

Torres nets third goal for Barcelona

Ferran Torres scores third goal for Barcelona in the 91st minute. As Real Madrid counterattacked, the wingers were freed by Fermín Lopez to goal. The opportunity came after Kroos’ free-kick and Jossel headed it over the target.

Tchouameni hits crossbar

After receiving a back pass from Rodrygo from inside the penalty area, the Frenchman shook the crossbar from 30 meters away. Tchouameni was unimpeded and the ball caught Ter Stegen on the rebound and headed into the corner, where he took his time and laid out plenty of attacks.
