Defending champions boost title defence with 5-0 win

The reigning La Liga champions reinforced their title‑defence credentials with a 5-0 demolition of Valencia. Goals came from Lamine Yamal (2), Fermin López, Rafinha and Pedri. López also supplied two assists, first to Yamal and later to Rafinha, whose tap‑in completed the third goal. Barcelona’s early aggression paid off, as they scored the opener within six minutes and never looked back. The win raised their points total to 12, extending a three‑point advantage over second‑placed Real Madrid. Valencia, meanwhile, languish at the bottom with just one point after four fixtures.
