Ferran Torres scored twice again against Getafe
For Barça, the match against Getafe was a real 'bath' at the Estadi Johan Cruyff. Again, Hansi Flick's team prevailed with authority on the field of St. Joan Despí, this time led by a lethal Ferran Torres. The 'Shark' scored a brace in 34 minutes of the first half, bringing his total to 4 goals in 5 league matches, starting in all of them.
The player from Foios opened the scoring in the 15th minute thanks to a spectacular backheel assist from Dani Olmo. Then, in the 34th minute, Raphinha enabled the '7' with a pass into space, culminating a lethal counterattack from the 'culés'. In the second half, Olmo closed the scoring with another beautiful goal, after a pass back from Marcus Rashford.
Earlier, the Kosovar Vedat Muriqi also reached 4 goals in LaLiga, scoring the equalizing goal for Mallorca against Atlético de Madrid (1-1). The experienced striker's goal came in the 87th minute, a goal that represents only the second point for the 'bermellón' team this season.
