On American soil, Premier League giants Arsenal ignited their fans with a brilliant comeback win. Just Thursday morning (27th), they started a warm-up match with Barcelona. Arsenal won 5-3 thanks to Liandou Duchate's second goal. German international Xaviers scored again in this game, scoring in three consecutive matches, and seems to be gradually integrating into Arsenal's tactical system.
Although Arsenal suffered an embarrassing "double egg" defeat against Manchester United in the last round, the players' form improved significantly in this match despite the absence of "Mr. Billion Dollar" Dylan Rice due to injury. At the start of the match, the two sides started to attack each other fiercely. Barcelona took the lead in the 7th minute with a goal by Robert Lewandowski, but Bukajo Shaka quickly equalized in the 6th minute. Arsenal then had a penalty kick opportunity, but unfortunately Bukayo Shaka hit the ball against the post. Barcelona took the lead again in the 34th minute from a penalty kick, but Arsenal attacked and Xaviers equalized in the 44th minute to make it 2-2.
Both teams made changes in the match, but the match was still a "climax". Leandro Duchate scored in the 55th and 78th minutes to increase the lead to 4-2, and just before the end of the match, Ferentolis scored for Barcelona to reduce the lead to 3-4, but just a minute later, Arsenal's counter-attack worked again, and Fabio Vela scored a stunning goal from inside the penalty area to seal the 5-3 win.
