Rashford & Torres Start for Barcelona Against Osasuna
13 Dec
Summary
- Marcus Rashford and Ferran Torres join Barcelona's attack.
- Robert Lewandowski and Fermin Lopez are benched for the match.
- Osasuna manager makes one defensive change with Herrando starting.
Barcelona manager Hansi Flick has opted for a reshuffled attack, bringing in Marcus Rashford and Ferran Torres for the upcoming fixture. Torres, currently the team's top scorer in La Liga with 11 goals, will feature alongside Rashford, while veteran striker Robert Lewandowski and young midfielder Fermin Lopez are named as substitutes. This tactical adjustment signals a potentially dynamic offensive strategy for the Catalan club.
The opposing side, Osasuna, under manager Vicente Moreno, has also made changes to their XI. A single alteration sees defender Jorge Herrando stepping in for winger Ruben Garcia. This substitution suggests a more cautious, defensive setup from Osasuna, aiming to frustrate Barcelona's revamped attack and maintain their recent winning form.
The revised Barcelona lineup includes J. Garcia, Kounde, Cubarsi, Martin, Balde, E. Garcia, Pedri, Yamal, Raphinha, Rashford, and Torres. Osasuna will field Herrera, Boyomo, Herrando, Catena, Arguibide, Moncayola, Torro, Aimar Oroz, Bretones, V. Munoz, and Budimir. Both teams will be looking to secure a crucial victory in this encounter.
