Robert Lewandowski scored twice while Raphinha and Lamine Yamal added one each in Barcelona’s 4-0 win over Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League quarter-final first leg. Barcelona have not reach UCL semis since 2019.
Barcelona thumped visitors Borussia Dortmund 4-0 in their Champions League quarter-final first leg on Wednesday after Robert Lewandowski scored twice against his old club to earn the Catalans a sizeable lead ahead of next week’s return visit to Germany.
Undefeated since late December, treble-chasing Barca predictably dominated the opening stages and grabbed the lead with Raphinha’s strike in the 25th minute. A string of saves from Dortmund keeper Gregor Kobel frustrated Barca for the remainder of the first half.
Barcelona emerged more determined after the break and it took them only three minutes to score the second goal, with Raphinha assisting Lewandowski, who nodded home from close range.
