Tottenham Hotspurs Batter Barcelona 4-0 in a Pre-Season Friendly

Barcelona Suffer Humiliating Defeat in Preseason

Tottenham Hotspur Dominate Barcelona with Clinical Performance

Tottenham Hotspur played scintillating football to thrash Barcelona 4-0 in a pre-season friendly, with goals from Richarlison (2), Harry Kane, and Son Heung-min. Antonio Conte's men showcased their attacking firepower in front of a fervent crowd at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Tottenham dominated from the off, with Barcelona struggling to impose themselves on the game. Richarlison, the Brazilian forward, was a constant threat for Tottenham, and he opened the scoring with a fine header in the 15th minute. He doubled his tally in the 25th minute, latching onto a loose ball in the Barcelona defence and firing an unstoppable shot into the far corner.

Barcelona failed to create any clear-cut chances in the first half, and Tottenham continued to press after the break. Harry Kane extended Tottenham's lead in the 55th minute, with a clinical finish from just outside the penalty area. Son Heung-min added the icing on the cake in the 75th minute, capping off a swift counter-attack with a sublime finish.

Barcelona's defence was at sixes and sevens throughout the match, and they will need to improve significantly before the start of the new season. Tottenham, on the other hand, look to be in fine form under Conte, and they will be confident of challenging for major honours this season.
