Marcus Rashford had a mixed performance in FC Barcelona’s last pre-season match before the 2025/26 season.
-
The Manchester United loan player admitted to making the ‘worst miss of pre-season’ even though the Catalan club won against Como 5-0 in the Joan Gamper Trophy.
-
Supporters who witnessed the surprising error online didn’t hesitate to mock him on various social platforms.
Marcus Rashford’s evening at the Joan Gamper Trophy looked like an ideal beginning in Barcelona attire: a brilliant pass, energetic teamwork, and a strong victory.
However, the game will also be recalled equally for a major error that shocked supporters.
An English striker, currently on loan from Manchester United, received his initial starting opportunity with the team since arriving during the summer, marking Barcelona’s last practice match ahead of the upcoming season.
The opposing team, the Italian club Como, came into the match under the management of former midfielder Cesc Fàbregas.
Barcelona destroy Fabregas’ Como
They stood firm during the first 20 minutes. Afterward, Barcelona’s momentum began to build.
Fermín López scored the opening goal in the 21st minute, concluding a fluid attack that energized the local supporters.
Fourteen minutes after that, Lopez scored once more, extending the advantage and strengthening Barcelona’s control over the match.
After two minutes, Rashford found his way into the highlights. Using a smart pass that broke through the defense, he created an opportunity for Raphinha, who scored to make it 3-0.
At the 42-minute mark, Lamine Yamal, a contender for the Ballon d’Or, showcased his talent with an elegant strike to score his fourth goal before half-time.
Marcus Rashford’s unbelievable miss
Soon arrived the moment Rashford would prefer to erase from memory. After scoring past Como’s goalkeeper, the 27-year-old was left facing an open goal. For some reason, he managed to shoot the ball off-target.
Raphinha, who was close by, stood frozen with shock before bursting into a grin.
His teammates could clearly see that Rashford’s usual composure had left him at that moment.
Social media acted quickly. Footage of the incident spread rapidly, generating a combination of ridicule and compassion.
@MisterBWO teased:
This marks only the start 😂. There’s much more ahead.
@BigYolo_ chimed in:
United has cheated Barcelona 😂
@TheMightyRatio added:
You may remove the boy from Manchester United, but you cannot erase Manchester United from within him.
@KennedyDiMera was ruthless:
Rashford hails from Manchester; that’s common there…boys should grant him some time 😂😂😂
However, @RandomFPL provided a more compassionate perspective:
Wretched shot, Rash, but I truly enjoy what I’m witnessing. This squad perfectly suits his style of play. A 30+ goals and assists season ahead.
Rashford was substituted out at half-time, making way for Ferran Torres.
At the same time, Yamal quickly secured his second goal of the game, resulting in a 5-0 lead only four minutes into the second half.
The result remained unchanged, marking a strong showing before the 2025-26 season.
Although the mistake will remain part of the discussion, Rashford’s pass and general teamwork demonstrated why Barcelona signed him.
The player currently on loan at Manchester United aims to move past the jokes as the Catalan team heads to Mallorca on August 16 for their opening match in La Liga.

August 10, Pakistan — Iran Air has started non-stop flights linking Quetta with the Iranian cities of Zahedan and Mashhad, representing the initial consistent commercial aviation connection between these traditionally important locations. The carrier’s first flight safely arrived at Quetta International Airport on Friday, capturing interest from authorities and passengers. This newly established route aims to provide more ease for travelers and enhance the enduring cultural and economic ties between Pakistan and Iran.
During the airport event, Pakistan’s Envoy to Iran, Mohammad Mudassir Tipu, commended the initiation, referring to it as a “long-held wish” from citizens of both nations. He conveyed his belief that these non-stop flights will enhance commerce, tourism, and cultural interactions between the two countries. As per the envoy, the route holds “significant promise” for strengthening connections and promoting interpersonal relationships that extend past commercial and travel purposes.
The newly launched service will start with weekly operations connecting Quetta and Zahedan, offering a vital transportation choice for people from Balochistan and surrounding areas. Authorities anticipate that this frequency could grow over time as more passengers utilize the route. Additionally, the journey provides a practical link for pilgrims traveling to Mashhad, which is among Iran’s key holy sites. It is projected to generate substantial economic advantages via higher expenditures related to tourism and movement.
At the event, representatives emphasized that the launch occurs during a period when regional aviation connections are growing more significant. Due to the proximity of their locations and common cultural background between Pakistan and Iran, enhancing transportation networks has consistently been considered essential. Officials from both nations expressed their readiness to examine new routes in the near future to enhance mutual collaboration.
Nevertheless, the progress follows closely behind an announcement made by Pakistan’s Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, who declared that devotees will not be permitted to journey to Iran or Iraq via land for this year’s Arbaeen pilgrimage because of safety issues. He mentioned that the choice was reached following thorough talks with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Balochistan administration, and intelligence organizations. Although overland movement continues to be limited, the introduction of this aerial route presents a secure and effective option for numerous passengers.
This achievement marks an important step for Iran Air’s direct route from Quetta to Zahedan to Mashhad, which will be crucial in connecting populations along the border. Weekly flights are anticipated to support both spiritual and recreational travel, as well as foster commercial relationships, thereby promoting collaboration between the two adjacent nations.

SBS’s “Running Man” continued to lead the 20-49 demographics rating with an eventful “Room Tour” competition.
The show Running Man, which premiered on the 10th, topped the entertainment charts simultaneously with a viewership rate of 1.8%, according to Nielsen Korea’s data from urban households. The peak rating per minute reached as high as 4.9%.
On this day, the group made an appearance in a holiday outfit during the ‘2025 Daydokkaebi Room Tour’ challenge, sparking laughs right from the start. Kim Jong-guk caught eyes wearing a sleeveless T-shirt showcasing his biceps, while Song Ji-hyo stood out with a denim style exposing his midsection. Kim Jong-guk remarked, “He probably wasn’t too sure of himself,” adding humor as everyone laughed when he mentioned, “I used a microphone to cover my stomach.”
Prior to the official competition, the production crew advised participants to think about “What you would like to bring from your car during a trip.” Song Ji-hyo pulled out the slippers used as prop items for “Running Man,” and the group set off on a mission called “Attempting to Steal.” Song Ji-hyo mentioned, “I planned to return them today,” but Ha-ha replied, “They got stolen,” which made everyone laugh.
Ji Seok-jin wept and selected a straw hat as an essential item after being exposed as “Travel Item” by his friends, yet surprisingly, he earned the highest amount of R-coins. It was revealed that the lighter the item, the greater the number of coins awarded. From that point onward, the group had to decide between a luxurious journey or a budget-friendly one, with Yoo Jae-seok, Song Ji-hyo, Yang Se-chan, and Ji Ye-eun opting for the economical option.
Comedian Lim Woo-il made an unexpected appearance as a guide during the budget-friendly tour. At first, he raised doubts among the participants by acting like a live game show host alongside the production crew. Yoo Jae-seok asked, “What’s the ranking of comedians?” To which Lim Woo-il replied, “That’s SBS.” Meanwhile, Song Ji-hyo joined in with humor, saying, “I’m an experienced broadcaster” as she entered the ‘Japdori Time’.
At the same time, Kim Jong-guk opted for an upscale vacation alongside Ji Seok-jin, Ha-ha, and Choi Daniel, stating, “I don’t hold back when it comes to traveling.” In a lavish room filled with meals, the group asked, “Is this alright?” Although he felt nervous, he ultimately appreciated the opulence.
The turning point during this room tour was “Moon Color.” The Green Moon allowed participants to purchase a token for penalty relief, while the Pink Moon required calculating expenses related to food and drinks. Consequently, Ji Seok-jin and Ha-ha, who opted for the deluxe room, were unable to cover the costs, leading them to perform the punishment titled “Blazing with Flame.”

Although a truce has been signed between Thailand and Cambodia, tour companies and hotel owners on Koh Chang still have doubts regarding the current circumstances’ reliability. Several businesses faced a significant drop in visitors as well as a lack of staff.
Saksit Mungkarn, ex-chairman of the Trat Tourism Industry Council and owner of a hotel on Koh Chang, stated that the peace accord has failed to restore trust within the business community because of ongoing political unrest and unpredictability on either side of the border.
Border disputes between Thailand and Cambodia have led to an unexpected labor deficit. Cambodian employees, who played a crucial role in the hospitality and building industries, started going back to their country at the end of last month. Currently, only those individuals with family members living permanently on Koh Chang remain, according to Mr. Saksit.
Without Cambodian laborers, local business owners have started relying on Thai employees and student trainees to take up roles in hotels and restaurants, he mentioned. Nevertheless, the construction industry suffered the most, as only a small amount of workers from the northeastern region were available, he added. Similarly affected, Ms. Pornthip Sunthornkit, manager of Chai Chet Resort, stated that the tourist environment on Ko Chang had become very subdued since the border conflicts commenced.
Many visitors have delayed or canceled their reservations, particularly seminar groups, who are our primary clients at this time,” stated Mrs. Pornthip. “Travelers view Trat Province as dangerous, despite our efforts to inform them that visiting Ko Chang is still feasible and the island continues to be safe.
She mentioned that reservations at her resort have dropped by nearly 90%, noting that other businesses on the island were probably experiencing comparable challenges.
Apart from the drop in tourism, certain Cambodian employees asked for short-term time off to go back to their homeland because of worries and anxieties about their own security and belongings, even though bosses tried to offer assistance and comfort, according to Ms. Pornthip.
She urged the government to broaden aid programs for individuals impacted by the border clash, regardless of whether they were situated near the frontlines.
“A lot of us have outstanding loan balances with banks. We wish the government would take into account support measures like lowering interest rates, granting temporary pauses on debts, or extending payment periods, akin to previous actions taken,” she mentioned.
“Even though we aren’t at the front lines, we are experiencing secondary effects. If the circumstances continue through the end-of-year peak season, the financial impact will become much worse,” stated the resort manager.

Bikes known as White Bicycles originating from Hoge Veluwe National Park, a natural area located in the Dutch region of Gelderland, are being reused in Morocco. More than 500 of these well-known bicycles, which were once provided at no cost to park guests, have now been gifted to assist school children and triathlon competitions within the nation.
“We previously sent them to Central and Southern Africa, but this time we went with Morocco,” stated Baron Seger van Voorst tot Voorst, the park’s director, in an
interview
in collaboration with the local public broadcasting station. “There are 400,000 people of Moroccan origin residing in the Netherlands, and we aimed to help reinforce these connections.”
The initiative seeks to decrease the extended time kids spend traveling to school, which can enhance their attendance and educational outcomes. The bicycles are light and do not have gears; they are provided for use and completely restored every five years by the park’s specialized maintenance center.
Bicycles are also utilized in triathlons across Morocco, even though the region presents difficulties due to its mountainous landscape. As part of the initiative’s future goals, young locals are receiving training as bike technicians to manage emerging service centers and maintain ongoing operations.
Initially created to encourage sustainable travel, these basic white bicycles are currently supporting neighborhoods well outside of the Netherlands.
