19 Aug
Summary
- Barcelona defeated Egyptian giants Al-Ahly 2-1.
- The team's performance was deemed below its usual standard.
- Players Lamine Yamal and Jules Koundé underperformed.
Abdelkarim and Raphinha scored to give Barcelona a 2-1 victory over Al-Ahly on Wednesday evening at the Spotify Camp Nou. This marked Barcelona's return to their home stadium after a break of roughly two and a half months, their first time back since the conclusion of their La Liga campaign in May.
