A true 'steamroller', that was what was seen in the match between FC Barcelona and Valencia CF. A match in which Hansi Flick's team, with a starting eleven filled with rotations in all areas of the field, returned to the path of victory in LaLiga EA Sports with a resounding 7-1, where all eyes were on Fermín López who ended up being the undeniable 'MVP' of the match.
The player from El Campillo scored a couple of goals and assisted two others, on a day where Frenkie de Jong, Ferran Torres, Raphinha, and Robert Lewandowski also showcased their scoring abilities.
With this overwhelming result, which allowed FC Barcelona to surpass the 100-goal barrier this season, the blue and claret team continued to build an important record over the last decade. Indeed, with this 7-1 against the 'ches', the Catalan club accumulates nine matches in which they have scored seven or more goals in an official game. A truly overwhelming record.
In this 2024-25 season, FC Barcelona had already experienced the sensation of scoring seven goals. That memorable performance took place on August 31 in the 7-0 victory against Real Valladolid in Montjuïc, featuring a 'hat-trick' from Raphinha, along with individual goals from Robert Lewandowski, Jules Koundé, Dani Olmo, and Ferran Torres.
