Mallorca's Manu Morlanes received the yellow card after 24 minutes of play. By then, Barcelona had already managed to score both 1–0 and 2–0 through Raphinha and Ferran Torres.

Nine minutes later, it was time again. New yellow card for Morlanes and Mallorca had to manage with ten players. However, it would get worse for the away team.

In the 39th minute, the attacker Vedat Muriqi made a mistake with a high kick that hit Barcelona's new goalkeeper Joan Garcia in the face. Red card for Muriqi and the rest of the match became a transport route for Barcelona.

Super talent Lamine Yamal scored the match's last goal, 3–0 in added time.
