October 02, (THEWILL) – In the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday, Barcelona striker, Robert Lewandowski, scored twice to lead his side to a dominant 5-0 thrashing of Swiss club, Young Boys. This triumph comes as a strong response from the Catalan giants after their 2-1 loss against AS Monaco in their previous European outing.

Lewandowski opened the scoring in the eighth minute, tapping in a low cross from Brazilian forward Raphinha following a slick combination play between the duo and teenage sensation Lamine Yamal. Despite squandering some decent chances, Barcelona soon extended their lead with quick-fire goals from Raphinha and defender Iñigo Martínez, putting the hosts firmly in control by the 37th minute.

The Polish striker Lewandowski netted his second and Barcelona’s fourth goal in the 51st minute, heading in from a Martínez corner kick. Young Boys’ woes deepened in the 81st minute when defender Mohamed Camara inadvertently bundled the ball into his own net while attempting to clear an Alejandro Balde cross.

This commanding victory marks a significant turnaround for Barcelona, who had suffered that 2-1 defeat in their UCL opener. The Catalan side’s attacking quality and defensive solidity will no doubt provide a major boost to their European campaign as they look to challenge for the prestigious title under German manager Hansi Flick.

With Lewandowski once again proving his class on the big stage, Barca will be hoping to build on this confidence-inspiring performance as they continue their quest for continental glory in the 2024/2025 season.
