How was the match?

First Half

The home team surprised early and opened the scoring at five minutes into the first half. Joaquin Seys sent a deep pass to Carlos Forbs, who advanced down the right, entered the box, and passed to Nicolo Tresoldi. The number 7 slid in and finished into the back of the net.

However, Barcelona responded quickly. Just two minutes later, at the seven-minute mark, Fermín López reached the byline and crossed low for Ferran Torres, who got ahead of the goalkeeper and finished to tie the game.

The Belgian team regained the lead at 17 minutes. After a poorly taken corner by Barcelona, the hosts launched a counterattack. Carlos Forbs received the ball in midfield and passed to Christos Tzolis, who immediately returned it to the number 9. Forbs entered the box and placed his shot past goalkeeper Szczesny.

Second Half

At 15 minutes into the second half, Barcelona equalized with a beautiful goal from Lamine Yamal. The Spanish gem dribbled past two defenders at the edge of the box, exchanged passes with Fermín López, and finished with great skill with his left foot.

But the balance didn’t last long. Three minutes later, at 18, Carlos Forbs shone again: he received a through ball, went one-on-one with Szczesny, and with a lovely chip over Szczesny, scored Brugge’s third, putting the Belgians back in the lead.

Barcelona leveled the score at the 31st minute. Lamine Yamal advanced down the right and crossed into the box; as Christos Tzolis tried to clear with a header, he accidentally deflected the ball into his own net, leaving goalkeeper Nordin Jackers with no chance.
