Second win of the season for Barça Legends as goals from Roberto Trashorras, Nolito and Roger in the Moshood Abiola National Stadium in Abuja were enough for a 3-1 win over an African Legends team in Nigeria. Albert Ferrer's team had the better of an entertaining game in which blaugrana keeper Angoy also saved a penalty.  

Angoy, Okunowo, Christanval, Fernando Navarro, Sorín, Trashorras, Roger, Mendieta, Saviola, Giuly and Haruna Babangida formed the starting XI for Barça but despite early pressure the blaugranes struggled to find a way through in the opening minutes of the game. 

The best chance fell to the Africans who were awarded a penalty only to see Barça keeper Angoy make a great save to keep the score at 0-0. Finally, Barça found a way through when Trashorras' shot from the edge of the box made it 1-0. The hosts hit back with Diouf equalising before the break. Three minutes later Barça were back in front when Nolito took Giuly's pass to make it 2-1. 

The blaugranes had plenty of chances to add a third before Roger finally found the net to make it 3-1. More chances came and went but the final score of 3-1 to the Barça Legends and the entertainment provided to the 18,500 fans in the stadium made it a day to remember.
