Barcelona fans chanted Lionel Messi's name in the tenth minute of their victory against Juventus in the Joan Gamper Trophy on Sunday night.
It was Barcelona's first game since the departure of their legendary No 10.
Ronald Koeman's side ran out 3-0 winners at the Estadi Johan Cruyff, with Memphis Depay, Martin Braithwaite and Riqui Puig all scoring.
Although he may no longer be a Barcelona player, the Argentina international's incredible impact on the club was evident, with some supporters at the game holding Messi shirts aloft.
It was an encouraging performance from Barcelona as they prepared for the new LaLiga campaign, which gets under way next weekend.
Barcelona took the lead in the third minute, with youngster Yusuf Demir playing in Depay, who finished past Wojciech Szczesny.
Neto made a save to deny Cristiano Ronaldo and Barcelona proceeded to make it 2-0 in the 57th minute, with Braithwaite scoring with a header.
Riqui Puig rounded off the scoring with an excellent finish in stoppage time.

This is what we missed to watch today. Cr7 was feeling very lonely in the pitch as his fellow GOAT 🐐 was missing...💔

Riqui Puig honoring Messi the best way one can; scoring a classic Messi-goal with his left foot from outside the box, the turn, control and strike. infact his having messi's signature allover it.

It's Ironic how Both Men and Women's team scored in the first 2 minutes. This guy is something else though...
Then Allegri seems like he has no plan at all. Just a brother to Arteta

Messi asks for a number, PSG asks for Neymar's number (10), Neymar asks for Dimaria's number (11), Dimaria asks for Mbappe's number (7), Mbappe asks for Icardi's number (9), Icardi asks for the Antonella's number
