Barcelona dismantled Valencia 5-0 at Mestalla Stadium on September 6, marking the kind of away performance that makes the rest of La Liga quietly update their title odds. Four matches played, four wins secured, 17 goals scored, two conceded. Hansi Flick’s side isn’t just winning games, they’re turning them into highlight reels.
The result pushed Barcelona to 12 points from a possible 12, sitting comfortably atop the La Liga table after Matchday 4 of the 2026/27 season. Valencia, by contrast, sit in the relegation zone with a single point to their name.
Yamal and Fermín lead the rout
Lamine Yamal was the star of the evening, bagging a brace with goals in the 6th and 83rd minutes.
Fermín López was arguably just as influential. He set up Yamal’s opener before finding the net himself for Barcelona’s second goal.
