Caroline Graham steers Barça to 0-4 win at Sevilla

Barça returned to the top of the Liga F table with another dominant performance at Estadio Jesús Navas. After their 5-0 opening win over Costa Adeje Tenerife, they beat Sevilla 0-4 to stay first with a perfect six points from two games and a +9 goal difference, according to Mundo Deportivo.

Two matches, same message

Head coach Pere Romeu was also marking his 100th official match on the Barça bench, and he rotated the side from the debut. Esmee Brugts, Marta Torrejón and Kerolin came into the XI, while the tactical setup shifted: Martina Fernández moved to the center of the back line and Claudia Pina operated in midfield to balance the attack, as the paper reports.

The star moment came early through Caroline Graham Hansen. The Norwegian opened the scoring in the 9th minute with a run and play that Brugts finished into an empty net. The 0-1 made it easier for Barça to manage the game until the 39th minute, when Sydney’s powerful shot struck the post.

Before halftime, Barça put the tie to bed again: 0-2 (45+2) Claudia Pina and 0-3 (45+5) Marta Torrejón.

The fourth seals it

In the second half, Sevilla pushed higher, but Barça made the most of the space. The final goal, 0-4 in the 55th minute, was scored by Vicky López after a turnover and an assist from Pajor, closing the rout.

Mundo Deportivo also highlights several squad/fitness notes: Brugts and Kika Nazareth returned from medical issues, and Martina González made another debut. The match finished without bookings, in front of 1,000 spectators at Jesús Navas.
