Barcelona coach Hansi Flick expressed strong disappointment over Raphinha's exclusion from the 2025 FIFA Best Men's XI, calling the decision 'a joke' and 'not fair.' Despite Raphinha's standout performance in the 2024-25 season, which helped Barcelona secure a domestic treble, only teammates Lamine Yamal and Pedri made the team. Flick highlighted Raphinha's incredible influence, including top goal contributions in the Champions League.
FC Barcelona secured a 2-0 victory over CA Osasuna at Camp Nou, extending their lead at the top of LaLiga to seven points. Raphinha scored a brace in the second half after a frustrating first period marked by a disallowed goal. This marks Barcelona's seventh consecutive league win under Hansi Flick.
