Barcelona Suffers 3-0 Defeat to Monaco in Trofeo Joan Gamper

Intense Match-Up between Championship Contenders

Barcelona's new manager, Hansi Flick, witnessed a disappointing start to his tenure as his team was outplayed by AS Monaco in the Trofeo Joan Gamper.

Monaco took the lead in the 86th minute when Mawissa found the net on the counter-attack. The visitors then tripled their advantage with two more goals, leaving Barcelona with no response.

Despite having less than an hour before the match, Barcelona manager Hansi Flick announced his lineup. However, the team's performance failed to meet expectations, with Monaco dominating the match from start to finish.

The result is a significant setback for Barcelona, who face AS Monaco again on Monday, August 12. The team will need to make significant improvements if they want to compete for the championship this season.
