Barcelona made a triumphant return to their rebuilt Camp Nou stadium on Saturday following two-and-a-half years in exile with a 4-0 win over Athletic Bilbao to go joint top of La Liga.
Ferran Torres netted a brace after Robert Lewandowski opened the scoring. Fermin Lopez also struck in a comfortable win against Athletic, who had Oihan Sancet sent off in the second half.
Hansi Flick’s side pulled level with Real Madrid at the top of the table. Los Blancos visit Elche on Sunday.
Barca set off fireworks before and after the game as a little more than 45,000 fans filled the three stands which had been opened.
The Spanish champions had planned to reopen their stadium a year ago but construction delays and other setbacks meant they were forced to wait for their homecoming.
