Leicester City showed commendable resolve to go toe-to-toe with Barcelona in the International Champions Cup, though they eventually fell to a 4-2 loss in Stockholm.
The Premier League champions, gearing up for their first Champions League campaign, had been thrashed 4-0 by Paris Saint-Germain in California on Sunday and needed a much-improved second-half showing to avoid a similar outcome on Wednesday.
Claudio Ranieri's men found Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi in fine form in the first half, teeing up a brace for Munir either side of the former Liverpool forward's fine individual effort.
Ahmed Musa was introduced at the break and crafted two excellent goals to inspire an impressive Leicester response, as new signing Bartosz Kapustka debuted, but Rafa Mujica's late stunner finished them off.
While Barca made just the one change from their win against Celtic, there were seven alterations to Ranieri's side following that PSG reverse, notably providing Jamie Vardy with his first action of pre-season.
A hectic start saw Suarez, Demarai Gray and Munir all waste openings, but, given another chance by Messi's stunning pass, the later tucked a finish under Ron-Robert Zieler to give the Liga outfit a 26th-minute lead.
And as the English side looked to respond, Munir appeared to have killed them off on the verge of half-time. The goal owed much to Suarez, whose glorious lifted pass found his team-mate's toe for a simple prod.
The industrious Nigerian was not finished there either, pressuring the Barca back-line into an error, then collecting Jeffrey Schlupp's centre to unleash an unstoppable blast.
However, Mujica swept a finish high into the corner in the 84th minute to thwart hopes of a fightback.
