Barcelona beat Chapecoense 5-0

Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez both scored in their first match without Neymar, as Barcelona eased to a 5-0 win over Chapecoense in the Joan Gamper Trophy.

Gerard Deulofeu, who was playing from Neymar’s position, opened scoring for the La Liga side.

Sergio Busquets superb long-range effort found the top corner, before Messi and Suarez made it 4-0.

Denis Suarez then came off the bench to round off scoring, as Ernesto Valveder continues to prepare his team for Sunday’s Supercopa de Espana first leg against Real Madrid.

Chapecoense were chosen as Barca’s opponents for their traditional curtain raiser, in honour of the people – including 19 players – who died when the Brazilian club’s plane crashed en route to the first leg of the Copa Sudamericana final against Atletico Nacional last November.
