Barcelona 2-0 Feyenoord at halftime
FC Barcelona held a 2-0 lead over Feyenoord at halftime in their UEFA Champions League opener at Spotify Camp Nou. Raphinha opened the scoring in the third minute, assisted by Lamine Yamal, and Karim Adeyemi doubled the advantage in the 21st minute with a strike from outside the box. Barcelona dominated possession throughout the first half, controlling approximately 74-75% of the ball and limiting Feyenoord's offensive opportunities. The match marked the first Champions League encounter between the two clubs in over 50 years, with their last meeting in the 1974-75 European Cup. Barcelona entered the Champions League campaign with a perfect record in La Liga, having won all four of their opening matches with a significant goal difference. Feyenoord, conversely, arrived unbeaten in their domestic Eredivisie season, with three wins and two draws from their first five games. Despite Feyenoord's domestic momentum, the Dutch side struggled to create meaningful chances against Barcelona's control. The first goal came from a rapid counterattack initiated by Pedri, who found Yamal. The young winger then laid the ball off for Raphinha, who finished with his left foot.
