In a goal fest at Camp Nou, Barcelona triumphed over the newly-promoted Huesca with an astounding tally of 8-2.

With only 3 minutes on the clock, Cucho Hernandez opened the scoring for Huesca as he converted from close range after Longo had headed down inside the box. However, Lionel Messi made sure that the opponents' elation did not last too long as he made it all square for the Catalan giants in the 16th minute.

Jorge Pulido then gave Barca the lead courtesy of his howler that Werner was unable to save. Luis Suarez doubled the lead in the 39th minute before Gallar made it 3-2 just 3 minutes after Suarez's strike.

In the second half, Ousmane Dembele got Barcelona going by netting a goal in the early minutes. Immediately thereafter, Rakitic cemented Barca's lead by slotting a wonderful half-volley into the bottom corner having collected a superb pass from Lionel Messi.

The Argentine megastar himself also registered a brace close to the hour mark, making the scoreline 6-2 in La Blaugrana's favour. Jordi Alba also got a goal to his name as the Spaniard played the ball through the goalkeeper's legs after receiving a little pass from Lionel Messi.

Luis Suarez then capped off this eye-catching display of football by comfortably converting the spot-kick to secure his second goal.

Here's how Twitter reacted to the thrilling encounter.

Barcelona destroyed newly promoted side Huesca 8-2, but my favourite moment in the game was when Barça got a penalty, Messi was on a hattrick and he gave the penalty Suarez who has been struggling and is on low confidence this season and LS9 scores it. Love it. #FCB 🔴🔵

It’s fascinating how season in season out Messi seems to have no problem at all to get into a new season. It’s only been 3 games and the man is already dropping 10/10 performances. pic.twitter.com/4Hd6H4BmBm

Lionel Messi, the type of guy to let you blow out the candles on his birthday cake.

Please don't be saying Messi should leave Barcelona to test himself. Pele didn't even play in Europe but we're here wanking over him based on hearsay. His prime years were with Santos then he went to America. Messi is a footballer not a tourist, deal with it.

#BarçaHuesca Mess is so kind, he gives up a penalty to Suarez, a potential hat trick. I know someone who wouldn't have done that 😂.
