In the opening round of the Champions League, Newcastle hosted Barcelona. Barcelona came out on top with a 2-0 victory, courtesy of a brace from the summer signing of the Blaugrana.
Details: Barcelona winger Marcus Rashford continues to showcase his exceptional scoring record against Newcastle. Across all competitions, he has now found the back of the Magpies’ net seven times. Initially, Rashford did this while playing for Manchester United, but now he has extended his streak in a Barcelona shirt. Newcastle is clearly one of Marcus’s favourite opponents.
Throughout his career, only Leicester has suffered more from Rashford’s finishing — Marcus has netted against them eight times.
Interestingly, the goals against Newcastle were Rashford’s first official strikes for Barcelona.
Reminder: UEFA has announced the venue for the Barcelona vs PSG clash. It won’t be at Camp Nou.
