Calendar of FC Barcelona

FC Barcelona had a historic night in the Champions League. The Blaugrana team made a statement in front of their fans in the European competition with a resounding 4-1 win over Bayern Munich. Led by a monumental Raphinha, the Catalans broke a streak of six consecutive games without knowing victory against the Bavarians and were on the verge of the direct qualification zone for the playoffs.

The match began to lean in favour of the home team from the first minute thanks to a great goal from Raphinha when both teams were barely settling on the field, thus ending the drought of four games without scoring against the Germans. The Munich team tried to respond through Harry Kane, but Robert Lewandowski and, once again, the Barça '11' were in charge of putting distance between the two teams.

Raphinha put the 'jewel' in the crown

On returning from the changing rooms, the Catalans' 'dance' with the Teutons continued and a completely unleashed Raphinha sealed the rout with a hat-trick that will remain in the memories of Barcelona fans. To put the 'knot' on a legendary night, Gavi returned to the pitch in the European competition and received the ovation of Montjuïc, which witnessed a 'thrashing' that marks the beginning of the new 'era' in Barcelona.

In this way, the Blaugrana team maintains the spectacular sensations left in the clash against Sevilla and now set their sights on the Clásico, where they arrive as big favourites against a Real Madrid that received a brutal warning this Wednesday. In addition, they 'jump' to tenth position in the table, being on the verge of the direct qualification positions for the playoffs.
