All eyes were on Raphinha and Dembélé, though, as the duo combined brilliantly for the first goal.

Many assumed they would be fighting with each other for a place in the team, but their performances in pre-season proved that they can be devastating when both are on the pitch at the same time.

Here's how social media reacted to the duo’s performance:

@KayPoissonOne:

"Dembele to Raphinha to Dembele Goal. My God Chelsea fans must be going through it."

@xOluwaseyi:

"Why put Raphinha and Dembele against each other when you can enjoy both? "

@Joshua_Ubeku:

"Barcelona signed Lewandowski and Raphinha and Dembélé suddenly remember how to shoot low and score goals. I love that. Let it continue like that."

@EdmundOris:

Not Raphinha or Dembele. This goal shows it can be Raphinha + Dembele. The sky is big for everybody to fly.

Ousmane Dembélé produces a masterclass against Juventus, and sets social media alight with 2 brilliant goals

Ousmane Dembélé showed just why he’s such a sought-after star against Juventus.

The Barcelona winger produced two moments of individual brilliance as he grabbed a brace against Juventus in a pre-season friendly.

The French international only had 45 minutes against Juve but twice cut in from the right flank, dribbled his way through the defenders and fired off shots which found the back of the net.
