There were no 120,000 people, no party, less a show and not to mention the speech that the captain always makes Lionel messi when Barcelona started the season playing the traditional trophy Joan Gamper.

This Saturday Barça beat Elche 1-0 and added its third consecutive pre-season victory, only blue numbers for Ronald Koeman on the culé bench.

Let us remember that the Dutchman deleted Arturo Vidal, Luis Suárez and Riqui Puig from the summons.

When the clock ticked just two minutes, Messi opened for Jordi Alba who took over his band and took a perfect center for Antoine Griezmann to connect and open the account, which in the end, was the only goal of the match.

Elche, recently promoted and led by former Santiago Wanderers, Jorge Almirón, fought, but could not do damage in the opposite goal.

The president of Barça Josep Maria Bartomeu He declined to comment on the problem he has with Lionel Messi, and reiterated that he will not resign.
