Rashford's Surprising Miss in Barcelona's Big Win

Barcelona secured a dominant 5-0 friendly win over Como, but one of the most talked-about moments was a surprising miss from new signing Marcus Rashford. Despite failing to score from an open goal, Rashford’s overall performance has been promising, as he had already scored for his new club and provided an assist in this same match.

👍 A Promising Beginning

Marcus Rashford, who recently joined Barcelona on loan with a £30 million purchase option, has started his time at the club well. The 27-year-old forward scored his first goal in a previous friendly and continued to contribute by setting up a goal for Raphinha in the match against Como.

😮 The Unexpected Miss

Later in the game, Rashford had a golden opportunity to add another goal. After cleverly dribbling past the Como goalkeeper, he was faced with an empty net. To everyone’s surprise, his shot went just wide, leaving teammate Raphinha looking on in disbelief.

✅ Still a Great Result

While the miss was a surprising moment, it did not affect the final score. Barcelona’s comfortable 5-0 victory showed the team is in good form, and the missed chance was a minor footnote in an otherwise strong team performance.
