Anthony Gordon fires Barça ahead: goal in two minutes vs Getafe

Barça got straight into it at Spotify Camp Nou, with Anthony Gordon scoring after just two minutes against Getafe in LaLiga. It’s the clearest sign of a theme that’s running through this season: the league leaders have found the net before the 25th minute in 8 of 9 games.

Those early celebrations come from eight LaLiga matches and one Champions League outing, with the only exception the trip to Athletic: Raphinha put them ahead in the 37th minute. In every other game, Barça threatened and scored very quickly.

As MARCA highlights, Gordon’s strike is also a personal breakthrough: it’s his first goal in a Barça shirt. Previously in LaLiga he had five assists but was still waiting to score. The same source notes that Barça still had to come back after falling behind against Rayo and Sevilla, but their fast response has been constant.
