Barça Women are still unbeaten at the Johan Cruyff Stadium after a great 5-0 win against Logroño. Tacón and Atlético Madrid had conceded nine goals and six goals respectively at the new ground, and another five on Sunday meant a total of 20 goals in three league games at home, and a total of 27 if we add the two UEFA Women's Champions League games.

All over in 25 minutes

The blaugranes, who wore a pink armband in support of the International Day against breast cancer, quickly imposed their rhythm and scored within four minutes through Marta Torrejón. The visitors tried to react quickly through Barbra Banda, but it was Barça who went further ahead through Jenni Hermoso on 23. Two minutes later, Aitana Bonmatí extended the advantage, and 3-0 at halftime meant that the game was practically over.

Ambitious and eager to please, Oshoala quickly added Barça's fourth after the break, with Hamroui rounding things off nine minutes from time.
