Rashford Reserved Vs Getafe For Disciplinary?

JAKARTA - Marcus Rashford was founded in Barcelona's victory over Getafe 3-0 in La Liga, Monday, September 22, 2025, early morning WIB, after his heroic performance in the middle of the week against Newcastle United in the Champions League.

The report said he was backed up late for coming to the activation session on match day.

According to ESPN, he came a little late, but could not confirm that that was the reason he was not on the team. Hansi Flick's manager also played down the potential for the problem.

"That's normal because every three or four days we have a game. We also need fresh players on the pitch," he said of his decision to back up Rashford after two goals at St James' Park.

Flick has a zero-tolerance policy of delays, with Raphinha backed up in last weekend's win against Valencia after arriving late for the activation session.

Jules Kunde and Inaki Pena were among other players known to have violated Flick's rules in the past.

While Rashford is reportedly just a little late and it is not considered a big deal.

The British striker entered in the second half, providing assists for Dani Olmo's third goal which ensured victory in the pouring rain at Estadi Johan Cruyff.

Ferran Torres has previously scored two goals so that his total goal is four in La Liga this season.

"Three points, three zeros, that's okay. Everything is fine. I told the team we have to focus on our game. We did it in both rounds."

"We controlled the game, got three points, and scored three goals. It's not always easy to score against Getafe, but today the results are good," said Flick.

Meanwhile, the match was tense, with Barcelona annoyed with the aggressiveness of some of Getafe's defenders.

Torres said most of their time had not tried to do anything and only a lot of offenses, sparking a strong reaction from visitors coach Jose Bordalas.

"That's a very opportunistic opinion. The difference between the two teams is 1 billion euros, so I don't have any other comments."

"They have two high-level players in every position, can control the ball, strike back, as they please."

"There is a very big difference between the two teams. Such comments are disrespectful," said Bordalas in response to Torres' comments.

Barcelona's night was slightly tarnished by Fermin Lopez's injury in the final minutes. Flick said the midfielder underwent tests after the match to check his severity.

He hopes that Fermin Lopez can play for an away match to Real Oviedo headquarters on Friday, September 26, 2025, in La Liga.

Meanwhile, Lamine Yamal is also trying to return to action after missing the last three matches.

Barcelona remain unbeaten in La Liga this season, with 13 points from five matches, two points less than leaders Real Madrid.
