For the second consecutive matchday, Marcus Rashford added an assist from the corner with Bar\u00e7a. Against Real Sociedad (2-1), the Englishman served the equalizing goal, scored by Jules Kound\u00e9<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

FC Barcelona<\/strong> came back from a difficult match against Real Sociedad (2-1)<\/a> where, again, Marcus Rashford<\/strong> was a starter and a key player. The Englishman, this time as a left winger, added another assist, the third in LaLiga 25\/26, again through a perfect corner to the heart of the area.<\/p>

In the 43rd minute, ‘Rashy’ took charge of a corner from the left that ended in a lethal header from Jules Kound\u00e9<\/a><\/strong>. The Frenchman’s goal came at a key moment of the match, very close to halftime to destabilize the resistance of a team from San Sebastian that, until that moment, maintained a minimal advantage thanks to a goal from \u00c1lvaro Odriozola and the saves of \u00c1lex Remiro.<\/p>

In the second half, the entry of Lamine Yamal<\/a> finished shaping the Blaugrana comeback. For Marcus, Sunday was his fifth start of the season (fourth in La Liga) and the second occasion in which he exceeded 70 minutes on the field.<\/p>

Rashford repeated his Oviedo formula against Real Sociedad<\/h2>

And it is that the English international had also assisted Ronald Araujo<\/a> against Oviedo (1-3)<\/strong> in the goal that closed the Blaugrana comeback at the Carlos Tartiere. In this way, Bar\u00e7a scored consecutive goals by the same route: the third against the ‘carbayones’ and the first against the San Sebastian team.<\/p>

In 24\/25, aerial play also gave very good results for Flick’s team. Of the 102 goals that Bar\u00e7a scored in the last edition of LaLiga, 10 were headers<\/strong>. This season, in just seven matchdays, the team has already reached half of this figure (5 goals). For now, the ‘cul\u00e9s’ register 21 goals, with an average of 3 per match.<\/p>

Without a doubt, much has to do with the contribution of Rashford’s educated left leg. The Manchester native is a specialist in both corners and crosses to the heart of the area from the side, a specialty that promises to give Bar\u00e7a many joys in the rest of 25\/26, as well as his long-range shooting (for example, the match against Newcastle<\/a>).<\/p>

    Rashford’s records threaten Raphinha’s starting position<\/h2>

    In this way, Marcus has 2 goals and 3 assists<\/strong> in his first 8 matches with Bar\u00e7a. The Englishman seems to be settling into Hansi Flick’s lineup and already represents a serious threat to the starting position of Raphinha<\/a>, although the Brazilian, for now, is sidelined due to an injury in his right thigh.<\/p>

    The ’11’, for now, registers 3 goals and a couple of assists in 7 matches<\/strong>, 5 of them as a starter. The ’14’, on the other hand, also accumulates the same number of starts in 25\/26, a sample of the coaching staff’s plan to maximize internal competition in the Blaugrana squad.<\/p>

    Will ‘Rashy’ manage to take Rafa’s place? Against PSG and Sevilla, the Manchester native will again have an advantage, while the Porto Alegre native works to return to full strength in mid-October, after the second break of the season.<\/p>
