Barcelona Names Starting Lineup for Final Asia Preseason Match vs Daegu FC

FC Barcelona is concluding their preseason tour in Asia with a match against Daegu FC, aiming for a third consecutive victory after wins against Vissel Kobe and FC Seoul. Head coach Hansi Flick plans to field a strong starting lineup featuring key players such as Joan Garcia in goal, Jules Koundé at right-back, Ronald Araújo and Pau Cubarsí in central defense, Alejandro Balde on the left, and a midfield anchored by Pedri and Frenkie de Jong. The attacking trio of Lamine Yamal, Robert Lewandowski, and Raphinha remains a constant, highlighting Flick's confidence in their offensive core. Despite Daegu FC’s recent struggles in their domestic league, Barcelona is expected to maintain their perfect record in Asia ahead of the Joan Gamper Trophy against Como. Meanwhile, Liga MX Femenil has announced its star-studded squad for a high-profile match against Barcelona Femenil on August 22, spotlighting top talents like Alicia Cervantes and Jennifer Hermoso. This event underscores the growing prominence and competitive spirit of women's football in Mexico.
