In the match of the 12th round of the Spanish La Liga, a Catalan derby took place. Barcelona left no chances for Espanyol, who has just returned to the top division.
Under Xavi's management, the team played the first half in their usual aggressive style, determining the outcome of the match early on. Alongside a brace from Dani Olmo, Raphinha added another goal, allowing the team to etch their name in the club's history.

This marks the first time in 74 years that Barcelona has scored so many goals at the start of the national championship. In just 12 matches, the Catalans have netted 40 goals against their opponents. Notably, the club's best record stands at 42 goals in the first 12 matches of the 1950/51 season.
As a reminder, the "blaugrana" continue to lead the league table confidently, sitting nine points ahead of Real Madrid, although the "whites" have one game in hand.
