Mallorca vs Barcelona results, Blaugrana win 5-1

Madrid, Beritasatu.com – After three matches without a win, Barcelona won again in the Spanish League. This time, Barcelona beat Mallorca 5-1 in the match which was held at the Son Moix Stadium in Palma de Mallorca, Tuesday (3/12/2024) or Wednesday (4/12/2024). In the Mallorca vs Barcelona match, Raphinha scored two goals.

Ferran Torres, Frenkie de Jong and Pau Víctor also scored for Barcelona, ​​who are winless in three consecutive league games as Real Madrid edge closer to the top of the standings. Madrid are now four points behind but still have two games in hand.

Barcelona is at the top of the Spanish League standings with 37 points from 16 matches, followed by Madrid with 33 points from 14 matches.

Torres, who started in place of league top scorer Robert Lewandowski, opened the scoring in the 12th minute after a Mallorca defender failed to clear an easy ball from inside the box.

A defender tried to kick it but the ball bounced off a teammate and allowed Torres to easily fire a shot at goal.

The hosts equalized through Vedat Muriqi in a counter-attack before halftime which was Mallorca’s only shot on target.

However, Raphinha put Barcelona back in front by converting a penalty kick in the 56th minute. He increased his lead in the 74th minute after a neat pass from Lamine Yamal in the Mallorca vs Barcelona match.

Raphinha has now scored 11 goals in 16 Spanish League matches this season.

“This is probably my best moment, but I want to do more,” said Raphinha.

The Brazilian player admitted that Barcelona had not played optimally in the previous three matches. “We knew it was important to win again after three less than optimal matches. “It wasn’t our best match, but it was important to win,” he added.

Yamal also set up De Jong’s goal five minutes later, not long after the midfielder came off the bench. De Jong then assisted Víctor’s goal in the 84th minute.

Barcelona have scored five or more goals in a game for the sixth time this season in all competitions. They have outscored opponents 48-17 in the league alone.

Barcelona has lost twice in its last three league games, 1-2 to Las Palmas at home and 0-1 at Real Sociedad. Barcelona also drew 2-2 against Celta Vigo.

Barcelona, ​​who beat Brest in the Champions League last week, will visit Real Betis in their next league match on Saturday (7/12/2024). Mallorca, who is in sixth place in the Spanish league, will face Celta on Friday (6/12/2024). Mallorca have just picked up two league wins in a row, against Valencia and at Las Palmas.

The Mallorca vs Barcelona match was moved up because the two clubs will play in the Spanish Super Cup in January. Real Madrid and Athletic Bilbao, the other two clubs in the Super Cup, will meet on Wednesday (4/12/2024) in Bilbao.
