Barcelona beat Feyenoord 5-1 in the Champions League, taking charge almost immediately and never letting the visitors settle. Raphael Dias Belloli scored twice as the hosts ran out comfortable winners.

Match Summary

Barcelona seized the contest from the start. Raphael Dias Belloli had them in front after three minutes, with Lamine Yamal the provider, and Karim Adeyemi made it two before the game was 25 minutes old. João Cancelo supplied that second goal. Charles Vanhoutte was booked for Feyenoord as the visitors spent the rest of the first half trying to get on the ball.

The pattern held after the interval. Daniel Olmo Carvajal picked up a yellow card, then Belloli scored again, Pedri this time creating the chance. Nacho Ferri thought he had pulled one back for Feyenoord, but the effort was ruled out. Lamine Yamal added a fourth of his own later in the half. Sem Steijn finally got Feyenoord on the scoresheet from a Gonçalo Borges assist, only for Gabriel Jesus to restore the four-goal margin with Yamal involved once more.

Key Moments

The early two-goal spell decided the shape of the night. Once Barcelona were two up, Feyenoord were forced to chase and rarely looked like disrupting the home side's control.

The disallowed Feyenoord goal shortly after Barcelona made it three would have cut the deficit. Keeping that effort off the board left the visitors still needing a large comeback and allowed Barcelona to keep attacking rather than protect a narrower lead.

The late exchange, a Feyenoord goal answered almost immediately, underlined how little had changed. A consolation did not alter the result or the flow of the match.

Match Statistics

Barcelona dominated the numbers as clearly as the scoreline. They held 71 percent of possession, took 23 shots to Feyenoord's four, and put nine of those on target against two. The hosts also won four corners to one. Each side collected a single yellow card, and there were no red cards.
