Joao Felix matches his Chelsea goal tally in just 130 minutes with Barcelona
Joao Felix matched his entire output at Chelsea in just 130 minutes of football for Barcelona.
The Portuguese striker scored twice in his first Champions League match with Barcelona, helping his new club to a 5-0 victory over Belgian side Royal Antwerp.

In his first outing, against Real Betis in La Liga, he opened the scoring in a 5–0 victory, taking his goal tally to three in two games.
However, with another assist for Robert Lewandowski against Antwerp, Félix has now matched his production on loan at Chelsea last season where he scored four goals in 20 games, or for comparison, 1157 minutes.
Felix’s arrival on loan at Stamford Bridge from Ateltico Madrid in January reportedly cost the club a whopping £11 million in fees and wages for just six months of action.
That was shortened considerably when the 23-year-old was sent off on his debut against Fulham, further compounding Chelsea’s misery in their second-worst Premier League campaign.
There were some magical moments from the fourth most expensive player of all time, but not enough to keep him at the club, despite numerous flirtations.
Now, with Chelsea struggling this season, particularly in front of goal, they might have second thoughts about letting go of Barcelona’s new Portuguese maestro.
