For the record, Marcus Rashford netted his debut goals for Barcelona, bagging a brace against Newcastle. The Englishman's stellar performance powered the Catalans to a 2-1 victory.

This win was especially crucial since one of the team's key figures, Lamine Yamal, was sidelined. The Spanish youngster returned from international duty with an injury, causing him to miss both the La Liga clash against Valencia and the Champions League match.
