Barcelona eye a hat-trick of wins in pre-season after their 1-0 win over Real Madrid on Sunday.
Raphinha scored his first goal for the club since his move from Leeds to ensure Barcelona got one over their rivals at the start of the season.
The Catalan side face Juventus, NY Red Bulls and Pumas in their final three matches ahead of the season opener and aim for a strong finish.
On the other hand, Juventus beat Chivas 2-0 in their previous pre-season clash on Saturday.
Graca and Compagnon found the net for the Serie A side as they got off to the perfect start in pre-season.

This promises to be an entertaining affair given the quality on both ends of the pitch.

🚨 Xavi wants to bring Leo Messi back to Barcelona at the end of his PSG contract next summer.
He thinks the Argentinian can still bring a lot to the club, both financially and on the pitch.
And his arrival can allow him to end his career where it started.
