Rashford Subbed at HT as Flick’s Tweaks Fuel Barça Win

 

Marcus Rashford’s full La Liga debut for Barcelona ended prematurely, as manager Hansi Flick made bold halftime changes to overturn a 0-2 deficit against Levante

Rashford and Marc Casadó were replaced by Dani Olmo and Gavi, and the shift paid off instantly. Pedri and Ferran Torres scored within minutes of the restart, and a late own goal—forced by Yamal’s cross—sealed the 3-2 win.

Flick’s tactical switch restored Barça’s rhythm, with Raphinha returning to his natural left-wing role. “We had to show our character,” said Torres post-match. Flick praised Rashford’s potential but admitted the team needed a reset to secure the points.
