Marcus Rashford celebrated his first official goal in an FC Barcelona shirt in LaLiga EA Sports 2025/26. Against Sevilla, the Englishman scored the Azulgrana's first goal in the 45+7th minute of a match that Hansi Flick's side started losing 2-0 due to a controversial penalty scored by Alexis Sánchez and another goal from Isaac Romero.

In the last action of the first half, Pedri recovered a ball after a mistake by the Sevillians in their build-up. With his usual precision on his right foot, the '8' delivered a perfect cross that Rashford finished first-time with a left-footed shot to blast past goalkeeper Vlachodimos.

Barça's goal revived a Barça against the ropes in Seville

Barça had a really tough time in the initial 45 minutes at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán. Beyond Ronald Araujo's non-existent penalty on Isaac Romero in the 13th minute, Sevilla had up to seven clear opportunities in the culé area, with effective midfield pressure.

The Sevillians deservedly went 2-0 up in 37 minutes, scoring twice and missing at least three other very clear chances against a totally exposed Szczesny.

However, Flick's men reacted in the final stretch and, once again, got back into the game after being against the ropes, thanks to Pedri's magic and the striking power of Rashford, who, in the 43rd minute, had wasted a one-on-one against Vlachodimos after a great long pass from Pau Cubarsí that caught the Andalusian defense sleeping.

Rashford establishes himself as a left winger: 8 goals produced in 25/26

For Marcus, in any case, his first league goal allows him to extend a notable offensive streak with Barça. After the first break of the 25/26 season, the Mancunian has 3 goals and 5 assists in the last seven games, always participating in at least one Azulgrana goal.

In that sense, 'Rashy' is fully fulfilling the mission of replacing Raphinha, who in 24/25 was the Catalan team's top offensive producer with 34 goals and 23 assists. With Lamine Yamal also in the infirmary, the '14' has taken the offensive responsibility for a Barça that has now accumulated 46 consecutive matches scoring at least one goal.
