Historic Streaks: Past and Present Compared
The original record, established between November 22, 1942 and February 6, 1944 under Juan José Nogués, saw Barcelona also netting in 44 straight fixtures. Notably, this feat eluded the renowned sides managed by Johan Cruyff as well as the teams led by Leo Messi, affirming the unique nature of the current achievement.
| Streak | Matches | Dates | Manager |
|---|---|---|---|
| Original Record | 44 | 22 Nov 1942 – 6 Feb 1944 | Juan José Nogués |
| Current Run | 44 | 21 Dec 2024 – Present | Hansi Flick |
Nine Months of Prolific Scoring
Barcelona’s present run commenced on December 21, 2024, following a 0:1 defeat to Leganés when the team failed to score. That was succeeded by a 1:2 home loss to Atletico Madrid, after which the Catalan side have found the net in each of their 44 outings over the subsequent nine months. This sequence includes contests from the Champions League and the Spanish Super Cup, highlighting the team’s relentless offensive play.
Record-Setting Campaign in Sight
The 2024/25 season, guided by German manager Hansi Flick, saw Barcelona notch 174 goals across all competitions, marking it among the three highest scoring campaigns in the club’s storied history. Should the team score against Paris Saint-Germain, the reigning European club champions, on Wednesday, a new consecutive-scoring record will be set.
