Antoine Griezmann got his first Barcelona goal as they eased past Napoli with a 4-0 victory in their final pre-season game.
Match Reports
A stylish second half from Barcelona saw them sweep aside Napoli in Michigan to claim a 4-0 friendly win on Saturday.
Antoine Griezmann got his first goal for the club since his €120million move from Atletico Madrid, in between strikes from Luis Suarez.
Ousmane Dembele added a fourth against Carlo Ancelotti's side, who lost the first friendly meeting in Miami 2-1 on Wednesday and were simply no match for the Catalans here once they fell behind.
It was an encouraging display from Ernesto Valverde's Barca, without the injured Lionel Messi, ahead of their LaLiga opener at Athletic Bilbao on Friday.

Wow... Barca played realy well this is the first time that they played in our philosophy, the match was entertaining and fun to watch, Barca really dominated both the first and the second, Barca passed the ball around, De Jong played a key role he is excellent in key passes and he looks for space, glad Griezmann scored his first goal hope to see more from him, Suarez first goal was stunning, this is actually the first time that Suarez didn't messes up when given the ball, dembele again shined and he has proved once again why he should start for the team and why Barca shouldn't sell him, great game today, good luck Barca, now we focus on our first match in LA LIGA...

Suarez, Griezmann, Dembele. Now i can proudly say Barcelona can cope without Messi. & if possible, we don't need Neymar

neymar will have to live with the regret of leaving barca for the rest of his life. we went after money instead of remaining with a club that would have made him a legend. i dont see neymar returning to barca

1) Valverde being able to win a second leg against an Italian team is a miracle.🤯 2) Seeing all three forwards score reminds me of MSN😍& Greizmann's opening is goal account is relieving😁 3) Manolas 👌trigger a beast in Suarez 🦁. 4)Does Barcelona need Neymar?🤔 5) No team should ever wear white against Barcelona 😂😂😂.

Very difficult to put Frenkie de Jong into words. We paid €75 million for him? Let’s go and give Ajax the other €200 million that we owe them.
