Lamine Yamal starts, and so does Raphinha. Here is FC Barcelona's line-up for the friendly:

The game gets underway in Daegu. Barcelona attacking from right to left and the home team from left to right in the first half. This is the La Liga holders' last game of the Asia tour and they are looking to make it three wins out of three.

After a lukewarm start, the game opens up as Barcelona begin to conjure their midfield magic and control possession. As in the recent past, all eyes are on Barca's teenage star Lamine Yamal, who sets up Lewandowski before taking a crack himself on the Daegu goal, albeit too high.

Barca break quickly on a counter and score in the 21st minute! Gavi it is, with a clinical finish from his left foot, responding to Yamal's assist. The goal comes less than 60 seconds after Daegu nearly went ahead. Never give the titans such openings, as they say.

Barcelona are dominating at the moment. An inch-perfect cross from Gerard Martin from the left is finished first time by Lewandowski. No chance for the goalkeeper.

The first cooling break begins.

DGFC 0-2 BAR (27')

Daegu FC are really struggling to find any sort of footing in the game. The Blaugrana have almost three-quarters of ball possession, and even when the South Korean side have the ball, the Barca defenders are resolute in their high-line formation.

DGFC 0-2 BAR (35')

Three minutes added on by the fourth official. Barcelona are pushing hard to get a third goal before the break.

DGFC 0-2 BAR (45')

A sumptous through-ball from Koune finds the run of Gavi. The midfielder takes the ball and chips it over the goalkeeper. Araujo tried to help it, but it seemed to have crossed the line before the defender got a touch on it. The goal will likely go to Gavi.

DGFC 0-3 BAR (45+1')

The referee blows his half-time whistle. It has been really hard going for the hosts, and Barcelona go into the break three goals up.

The players are on the pitch for second half. Wholesale changes for the Blaugrana, with players like Rashford, Bardghji, Pedri, Cubari, Olmo, and more. Changes in the goal too, with Szczesny on.

The second half is underway!

DGFC 0-3 BAR (45')

Barcelona have continued their dominance in the seocnd half as well, and a good passing move leads to a shot on target from Torrents. It's straight at the goalkeeper, but warning signs from the young Barca guns.

DGFC 0-3 BAR (53')

A brilliant one two in front of the box leads to a through ball by Olmo to the young forward, Toni Fernandez, and the La Masia gem makes no mistake with the finish. A special moment for the 17-year-old.

DGFC 0-4 BAR (53')

Daegu are trying to slow down the tempo of the game - it's all about damage limitation at this moment. It's not working though, as Barcelona's Toni Fernandez almost finds Rashford with a through ball, but it goes out for a goal kick.

DGFC 0-4 BAR (63')

Olmo plays the ball to Eric on the right, and the defender puts in a good cross into the box that falls to Rashford, and the attacker puts it past Han into the back of the net. He becomes the first Englishman to score for Barceona in four decades since Lineker.

DGFC 0-5 BAR (65')

A triple-change for Daegu, bringing on two Brazilian players to introduce some flair into their play, which is pretty much non-existent at the moment. Barcelona replace Szczesny with the 19-year-old American goalkeeper Diego Kochen.

DGFC 0-5 BAR (75')

Five minutes of regulation time left to play, and Barcelona have had 25 shots - wiht 14 of them on the target. It has been wave upon wave of Blaugrana attacks, and Han has done immensely well to keep the scoreline down to just five.

DGFC 0-5 BAR (85')

It's all over at the Daegu Stadium, and Barcelona secure another big win in their pre-season tour of South Korea. A brace from Gavi in the first half, and the Blaugrana have won by five goals to nil.
