This decision came after his outstanding performance midweek in the Champions League against Newcastle United.\n\nReports suggested that Rashford&#8217;s substitution was due to a late arrival at the activation session on match day. A source confirmed that the player arrived slightly late, but could not confirm that was the reason for his absence from the starting eleven. Coach Hansi Flick downplayed any potential issue.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>It&#8217;s normal, because we have a match every three or four days. We also need fresh legs on the field.<\/p><cite>Hansi Flick<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nFlick has a zero-tolerance policy for late arrivals, as he demonstrated by leaving Raphinha on the bench in the previous match against Valencia.\n\nJules Kound\u00e9 and I\u00f1aki Pe\u00f1a have also been sanctioned for breaking Flick&#8217;s rules in the past. A source close to the club highlighted that Rashford&#8217;s late arrival was minor and is not considered a serious problem.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a4.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0921%2Fr1549144_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"Marcus Rashford came off the bench at halftime in Sunday&#039;s win over Getafe.\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\nRashford came onto the field at halftime, assisting in the third goal, scored by Dani Olmo, which sealed the victory at the Estadi Johan Cruyff in the rain.\n\nFerran Torres scored two goals, totaling four in LaLiga this season.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Three points, three zero, it&#8217;s good. Everything is good. I told the team that we have to focus on our game. We did it in both halves. We controlled the game, got three points, and scored three goals.

Lamine Yamal is also in the process of recovery.\n\nBarcelona remains undefeated in LaLiga this season, with 13 points in five matches, two less than the leader, Real Madrid.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rashford, on the bench in Barcelona&#8217;s victory The star striker, Marcus Rashford, was a substitute in Barcelona&#8217;s 3-0 victory over Getafe in LaLiga.
