| Arsenal 5-3 Barcelona Post Match Report |
We two times dug out from a deficit to guarantee a triumphant finish to our mid year US visit.
Inside the wonderful, sold out SoFi Arena in LA, Barcelona started to lead the pack from the beginning through Robert Lewandowski, before Bukayo Saka drew us level. Saka then, at that point, missed a punishment in a memorable first-half, before the Spaniards retook the lead through a redirected Raphinha free-kick.
Kai Havertz was perfectly located at the far post to turn home .
Martin Odegaard's header to even out things up again before the break and we deservedly went on when Leandro Trossard arrowed home his shot from right inside the area. Trossard scored his second, completing from Kieran Tierney's cross, before Ferran Torres momentarily brought Barcelona back into it.
Be that as it may, Fabio Vieira guaranteed the scoreline had the sparkle we merited with a shocker late on.
Early objectives
We got brilliantly after the deferred kick-going in the great SoFi Arena, however it was Barcelona who struck first, on their most memorable assault of the game. Aaron Ramsdale at first saved well from Raphinha, however the bounce back fell pleasantly for Robert Lewandowski to fold home.
The lead endured only five minutes. Ben White's pass into the crate was removed, yet Saka was alive to the open door, took the ball off Andreas Christensen, and completed well inside the close to post.
We kept taking the game to Barcelona, who were flying in with the difficulties to disturb our beat.
