Barcelona 3-0 Mallorca: Magic, Milestones, and a Four-Point Lead!
The Spotify Camp Nou was the stage for a masterclass today as Hansi Flick’s Barcelona swiped aside Mallorca with a commanding 3-0 victory. This win isn’t just another three points; it’s a massive statement that pushes the Blaugrana four points clear at the top of La Liga, leaving Real Madrid with a mountainous task in Valencia tomorrow.
Match Summary
The game began with a tense atmosphere as Mallorca’s defensive wall seemed unbreakable for the first half-hour. However, the deadlock was finally shattered in the 29th minute. After Marcus Rashford—who was a constant threat all afternoon—saw his effort blocked, the ball fell to Robert Lewandowski. The veteran marksman did what he does best, reacting with lightning speed to prod the ball home and settle the nerves of the home faithful.
The Lamine Yamal Special
While the opener was about grit, the second goal was pure, unadulterated genius. In the 61st minute, Lamine Yamal reminded the world why he is the sport’s brightest young star. Picking the ball up on the edge of the area, he ghosted past his marker before unleashing a trademark left-footed curler that nestled into the far top corner. It was a goal of such quality that even the Mallorca defenders could only watch in awe.
The scoring was completed seven minutes from time by Marc Bernal. The 18-year-old, who has endured a difficult road back from injury, capped off a fairytale afternoon by bursting into the box, sitting down his defender, and firing a clinical finish into the near post for his first senior goal.
The Flick Revolution Continues
With this victory, Barcelona have now extended their winning streak to six games across all competitions. They look balanced, hungry, and—most importantly—relentless. For Mallorca, despite a spirited start from Vedat Muriqi, they simply had no answer for the sheer individual brilliance of Flick’s attacking quartet.
