Barcelona logró una fortificante victoria por 4-2 en su primer partido de LaLiga en la Era DM (Después de Messi).
Tras la dolorosa salida del astro argentino, por problemas financieros del club, aún es extraño ver una formación blaugrana sin su apellido. De hecho, es primera vez en 18 años que su nombre o su figura está completamente fuera de la película.
Pero bueno, habrá que acostumbrarse, ¿no?
