FC Barcelona beat Al Ahly FC 2-1 in their Club Friendly Games meeting, with both sides using a 4-2-3-1 shape but Barcelona producing the greater attacking threat. The teams each recorded 50% possession, indicating an evenly shared contest territorially, yet the xG figures showed a pronounced difference in the quality of their opportunities. Barcelona accumulated 4.26 xG, compared with Al Ahly’s 0.52, suggesting their attacking structure generated the clearer openings despite the narrow final margin. Raphinha scored one of Barcelona’s two goals, providing a decisive contribution from the attacking line, while the available data does not identify the other scorers. Barcelona’s goalkeeper finished with 1.0 post-shot expected goals conceded and no goals saved above expectation, although no save percentage was supplied. With both teams aligned in the same formation, the key separation came through Barcelona’s ability to create higher-value chances within an otherwise balanced share of the ball. Al Ahly remained competitive on the scoreboard, scoring once and keeping the result close despite the disparity in expected goals. Barcelona therefore take a narrow friendly win from this meeting.
