JAKARTA - Marcus Rashford was only two minutes late for a meeting that cost him a place at the Barcelona starter against Getafe on Monday, September 22, 2025, early in the morning WIB.
The 27-year-old is expected to start after scoring two goals in a midweek win over Newcastle United in the Champions League. However, he was later backed up in La Liga for disciplinary problems.
Barcelona players are scheduled to attend match day against Getafe at 09.30 am local time before the meeting and activation session at 11.00 am.
Launching ESPN, Rashford entered at 09.32 am. As a result, Hansi Flick's manager immediately implemented a firm rule requiring the British striker to start a bench-back match. Flick finally fielded Raphinha, Ferran Torres, and Robert Lewandowski on attack.
