Barcelona raced out of the traps and took the lead in the 14th minute through the returning Andreas Christensen.

Goals from Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha in the space of three minutes gave Barca a comfortable three-goal lead at the half-time break.

Barca made it 4-0 in the 82nd minute and, with the three points secure, Xavi decided to give Yamal the opportunity to show what he could do.

The youngster was serious impressive during his short cameo on the pitch.

He nearly scored just a few minutes into his debut, but saw his shot saved by Rui Silva.

His best moment came in the 89th minute when he picked out Ousname Dembele with a stunning pass.

The youngster picked up the ball some 40 yards out from Betis' goal.

He spotted Dembele making a run behind the defence and picked him out with a stunning lofted-pass.
