Barcelona kicked off their Champions League campaign with a 2-1 away win against Newcastle United in the opening week of the group stage.

The Spanish giants secured the victory thanks to two goals from Marcus Rashford, who found the net in the 59th and 67th minutes.
Newcastle's lone goal came in the 90th minute through Anthony Gordon, but it wasn’t enough to salvage a point. Barcelona played the match without Lamine Yamal due to injury but still came away with all three points.
In the next round of fixtures, Newcastle United will travel to face Union Saint-Gilloise, while Barcelona will host Paris Saint-Germain.
