Barcelona's first win since 2008
Barcelona star, Brazilian Rafinha, achieved an unprecedented feat since 2008, when he scored a penalty against Elche at the start of the Spanish season. This broke a 18-year streak of opening goals for the Blaugrana from penalty kicks, with the last one scored by Lionel Messi in a match against Racing Santander. Rafinha scored his goal in the 14th minute, giving his team a perfect start and strong attacking momentum in the season's first game. This achievement highlights the significance of penalties in shaping Barcelona's season kickoff and revives memories of the club's past successes in season openers from penalties.
