Barcelona 4-2 Leicester City

Barcelona 4-2 Leicester City

Leicester City record signing, Ahmed Musa  showed class for his new side as he netted a brace against La Liga champions Barcelona in the International Champions Cup played in Stockholm.

The Foxes who lost 4-1 against Paris Saint German in their last pre-season game needed a lift as they test the waters against prospective UEFA Champions League opponents and the Nigerian sure provided the much needed inspiration.

Barcelona took a 3-0 lead in the first half courtesy a brace from Munir El Haddadi and a goal from last season’s topscorer Luis Suarez as they set out to white-wash Claudio Raneiri’s men.

However, Musa who came on for Gary at half-time, carried the fight to their more illustrious opponent with a beautiful solo goal as he danced past the Barcelona defenders before slotting past the keeper.

He followed that with a second strike to reduce the scoreline but Barcelona restored the two goals advantage as Rafa Mújica sealed the 4-2 win.
