Newcastle, UK—September 18, 2025
Marcus Rashford marked his return to England with a stunning brace as Barcelona defeated Newcastle 2-1 in their Champions League opener. The former Manchester United forward scored twice in nine minutes, including a thunderous strike from a distance.
Anthony Gordon pulled one back late, but Rashford’s performance silenced St. James’ Park and reignited hopes for a career revival. Barcelona manager Hansi Flick praised the “fantastic atmosphere” and Rashford’s “electric second half.”
