Barcelona Sweet Home: Lewandowski and Torres Light Up Spotify Camp Nou’s Big Reopening.
Barcelona The exile is over. After 909 days away, FC Barcelona finally came home—and they threw a housewarming party to remember.
In front of a jubilant, albeit reduced crowd of 45,000 at the partially renovated Spotify Camp Nou, Hansi Flick’s side dismantled Athletic Bilbao 4-0 to reclaim their spot at the summit of La Liga.
It was a night that began with tears of emotion and finished with a deafening roar, as goals from Robert Lewandowski, Fermín López, and a brace from Ferran Torres signaled that the “Fortress Camp Nou” is officially back in business.
Barcelona A Dream Start
Barcelona The atmosphere was electric before kick-off, but the nerves settled almost instantly when the new era began with a familiar sight: a Robert Lewandowski goal.
After Eric García won possession high up the pitch with a trademark press, the Polish veteran made no mistake, rifling a low finish past Unai Simón to send the stadium into raptures. It was the perfect start to a historic night, calming any fears of “stage fright” on the new turf.
Barcelona The Verdict: A Perfect Homecoming
Barcelona “It’s different when we play here,” Lewandowski told reporters after the match. “We feel stronger.”
He wasn’t wrong. Even with the construction cranes still looming over the stands, the spirit of the Camp Nou has returned. Barcelona are back home, back on top of the league, and looking more dangerous than ever.
