"Hansi Flick described Barcelona's return to Camp Nou as "the perfect day" after watching his side thump Athletic Club 4-0 on Saturday. In what was Barcelona's first game at the iconic stadium since May 28, 2023, Ferran Torres and Lamine Yamal stole the show for the Blaugrana. Robert Lewandowski's fourth-minute opener got the Blaugrana off to the perfect start before Torres netted his first of the match in first-half stoppage time."
"Barcelona pulled further clear through Fermin Lopez three minutes after the restart, before Athletic were reduced to 10 men following Oihan Sancet's straight red card. Torres capped a fine individual display on the stroke of full-time, with Barcelona having now scored in each of their last 33 LaLiga matches (85 goals), their best scoring run in the competition since February 2019 when Ernesto Valverde was at the helm (37 games, 99 goals). Former Manchester City forward Torres has now scored 22 goals at club level in 2025, more than any other Spanish player across Europe's top five leagues in all competitions."
"For everyone, players, staff, coaches, it was a special game, and for the fans to be back here in this stadium was an unbelievable feeling,"
Barcelona returned to Camp Nou with a dominant 4-0 win over Athletic Club, propelled by Robert Lewandowski's early opener, two Ferran Torres goals and a strong Lamine Yamal contribution.

The victory extended Barcelona's scoring run to 33 consecutive LaLiga matches (85 goals), their best since February 2019. Torres has scored 22 club goals in 2025, the highest among Spanish players in Europe's top five leagues. Barcelona moved temporarily above Real Madrid in the table.
