'Not like this, Barca!': Spanish press tear into 'UNRECOGNISABLE' Barcelona - with Lamine Yamal and Marcus Rashford given brutal ratings - after Chelsea handed Barcelona a 'nightmare' 3-0 thrashing

The Spanish press have been ruthless in their assessment of Barcelona's performance against Chelsea after Hansi Flick and Co endured a Champions League night to forget at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday evening.

The hosts were at the visitors' throats from moments after kick-off, with Chelsea finding the back of the net in just the fourth minute, only to see their strike ruled out.

The breakthrough came finally in the 27th minute via a shambolic Jules Kounde own goal, and following the dismissal of Ronaldo Araujo after the visiting star picked up a second yellow for a clumsy challenge on Marc Cucurella, Flick's side looked unable to lay a glove on Enzo Maresca's players.
