Rakuten Cup: Barcelona 1-2 Chelsea - 5 Talking Points 

#4 Subdued debut for Antoine Griezmann

Griezmann had a subdued debut

Having completed his long awaited transfer to Barcelona, fans had a first chance to see Antoine Griezmann when he took to the field against Chelsea.

The 28-year-old was arguably the best player for Barcelona in the first half, carving out a number of chances as early as the first ten minutes, before lashing out at thin air when a good opportunity presented itself on 24 minutes.

Towards the end of the half, Griezmann started getting more of the ball and teed up teammates for goalscoring opportunities, but poor finishing let them down with Ousmane Dembele being the chief culprit.

At the start of the second half, the former Atletico Madrid man faded into obscurity as he struggled to make a mark on the match.

As far as debuts go, this was somewhat below par considering his quality and Barcelona fans would be hoping he gets into shape in the coming weeks.
