In the post-match press conference, Barcelona star Dani Olmo explained why it was important to score an early goal against Getafe. The Catalans scored twice within the first 35 minutes to establish a strong lead over the opponents. Olmo, who scored the final goal of the night, said (via Barca Universal):

"Yes, it was important to score an early goal. They have clear ideas and play strongly, and if you don't score against them quickly, the match can become complicated."

Apart from Olmo's performance, notable difference makers in the game were Ferran Torres and Pedri. Hansi Flick took a risk tonight by playing Torres on the left wing, although he usually excels in the striker role, as a possible replacement for Robert Lewandowski.

However, Torres adjusted well to the position and made it to the scoresheet twice. With Lamine Yamal out due to injuries, Flick could try out some more combinations in the starting XI to make sure the squad is prepared for games, even if Yamal is not available.

Marcus Rashford remains another strong option in the attack, as he continued to make an impact by assisting Olmo tonight, despite coming off the bench. The Englishman scored a brace against Newcastle United in the UCL for Barcelona this week, but Flick rested him against Getafe.
