Liverpool destroy Barcelona at Wembley (0-4)

Bad image shown by Barcelona in their last pre-season game. Luis Enrique's boys suffered a huge defeat against Liverpool that were more prepared and showed more desire in the game.

The first half didn't start well. Klopp's players had more pace and Coutinho, Mane and Firmino were incredibly dangerous. It was the forty million signing from Southampton Mané ho opened the score. Ter Stegen, who defended Barcelona's goal in the first half, didn't have any chance to stop him. Arda Turan lost a ball in midfield and from there it all went even worse. Messi had Barcelona's best chance of the match, but his shot hit the post. Suarez had given him a very good assist.
Barcelona were patient, recovered the ball and ended the second half with better feelings. But they started the second one in the worst possible way. Two consecutive goals. Claudio Bravo was in goal by then but he wasn't the one to blame. Barcelona started the second half really slowly and Henderson -with Mascherano's help- and Origi put the 3-0 in a couple of minutes.
With only a few minutes to gol, Grujic scored a header and put the 4-0. A day to forget for Barcelona at Wembley.
