"Barcelona could not have asked for a better week. Everything that seemed to be going against the team for weeks has finally turned around, and the timing could not be more perfect. The return to the Spotify Camp Nou was always going to be emotional, but no one expected such a complete performance on the pitch. From the first minute to the last, Barcelona dominated Athletic Club and delivered a convincing 4-0 win that felt like a message to the rest of La Liga."
"What makes the weekend even sweeter is who returned. Joan Garcia, the first-choice goalkeeper, stepped back between the posts after injury and immediately brought calm and confidence. As such, his presence alone felt like the first piece of the puzzle falling back into place. Then came Raphinha. Last season's best player did not just return, he lifted the energy of the entire attack. While the Brazilian is not expected to step into the starting XI just yet, his mere presence is more than enough to excite the Barcelona fans."
"Adding to the joy, Real Madrid dropped points for the second match in a row. After a 0-0 draw against Rayo Vallecano before the international break, Elche held ground to restrict them to a 2-2 draw. Notably, two players with Barcelona history, namely, Inaki Pena and Hector Fort, played decisive roles in this"
