Barcelona made their start to the new season with a very fun International Champions Cup friendly against Tottenham Hotspur at the Rose Bowl on Saturday night. The Blaugrana would eventually win on penalties, but the big story is the first 45 minutes in which the reigning La Liga champions were simply fantastic and gave us reasons to be excited about what’s ahead.
FIRST HALF
4-3-3. Midfield dominance. Beautiful goals that came from high pressing and awesome passing sequences. It was just the first half of the first preseason game, but oh it was good to watch the real Barcelona play again.
