Barcelona cruised to a 5-0 win over Elche in their La Liga opener, with Raphinha and Fermin Lopez scoring twice each and Anthony Gordon setting up two goals on his debut. Karim Adeyemi also scored on his debut. The victory sent a warning to Real Madrid, who had won 2-1 against Espanyol the previous day. Barcelona coach Hansi Flick started several regular starters on the bench, and teenage winger Lamine Yamal started but was not at his best.
